Phoenix Children's Hospital New Grad Program (GAPP) Summer 2011

Published

This thread is for anyone applying to the Phoenix Children's Hospital Graduate Advancement Program in Pediatrics (GAPP) which is scheduled to start in July 2011. :nurse:

Has anyone applied or heard anything yet? My application still says HR is reviewing it.

Are there any current or past GAPP graduates out there that can give some advice to us hopeful new grads?!

Good luck to all those applying to this program. The job market is harsh right now for new grads.

Any word yet? i just saw they had a FB update yesterday.

Nope...not a thing yet :-( Anyone else get an interview offer? And the ones who got an icu and ed interview, have ya'll gotten any correspondence back yet?

I interviewed last friday as well. I haven't heard anything. it seems very competitive. very!

I received a call today that I got a position. So excited! The recruiter said there were about 500 applicants and they have 20 some med/surg postion, 4 CVICU and 6 PICU. She didn't say anything about the ED. I know with this number of applicants I feel lucky to even of had an interview and even luckier to have received a position. Good luck to everyone.
