Phoenix Children's

Unfortunately, that is how jobs are filled nowadays - it seems like agencies always refer you to the "website". I've encountered that multiple times...

As far as I know, there may be some departments in the hospital hiring for the GAPP but as far as my department - no. It's a great program if you can get in and it's a great hospital to work for.

One word of info, they have been limiting their hiring to BSNs and not ADNs just because they can. There's such an abundance of nurses out there right now the hiring managers can be choosy. Good luck!

When is the GAPP program supposed to start? January? I can't get any helpful info from their HR people either.....

This is SOOOO true. I'm looking to get my foot in the door into PICU, and have found that I get interviews (have my BSN) while my friends who do not haven't been.

I work at PCH and there is no GAPP program this winter due to the merger with St Joes (we have to absorb their nurses). There should be a GAPP program in February, but it will most likely be limited to PCTs that already work there (note the last GAPP in the summer, they only accepted people that were already PCTs and some PCTs did NOT get positions). The Phoenix area is saturated with new grads and you might be better off looking out of state.
