    Thanks Nurse 0322!! I'll definitely keep you posted. Did HR mean 30 spots each (30 for peds and 30 for women's health)? Or just 30 spots total? :/ Also.. did they say generally how many applicants they get for the winter cycle? Any other info I should know? :) Thanks again for sharing!!

    Ahhh!! Thanks so much!! Really informative! Ugh.. I hate interviews :/ So intimidating. I hear that the interviews for a new grad RN are always really difficult. Then after your first job, it's all down hill from there. I've been super stressed about job hunting. It's like.. you work so hard in nursing school, then you work hard to pass your boards and THEN still have to nail an interview to get a job. I'm really hoping to get something at CHS. I have heard good things about the nurse residency program at CHS. I know an alumn from school who just finished it and is still there at CHS. She had pretty positive things to say. I'm super excited to just start my career as a nurse.

    Thank you so much for the info!! Super helpful! I put peds and women's health at the top of my list... then ED and or critical care. What would you say is a competitive application? I'm hoping that because I'm not from the area that doesn't hurt me. I have a BSN and think I have a competitive GPA? (a 3.64) and I've had hospital experience. I have already passed my NCLEX too so I just have to apply for my NC license. Really hoping I get an interview!! :/ Interviews and offers are sent between October 1-end of December.

    Hi everyone, I just applied to the nurse residency program offered through CHS. I have a few questions! - How competitive is it to get placed? (Especially into peds at Levine Children's Hospital.. that's my ideal placement!). - Any insight on interviews? - Does anyone know the current pay for a new grad at CHS? Feel free to directly message me if you would rather not publicly post it. - Has anyone done the nurse residency program or doing it now? How do you like it? - Do people generally like working for CHS? - If you applied for your NC license out of state... how long did it take to get? Thank you guys for any help!!

I know that lebelesprit_ said around $21/hour but that was a few years ago. - Has anyone done the nurse residency program or doing it now?

    I looked at Levine's website last week it had a Transition-to-Practice Nurse Residency program, but the application closed in February. I guess they updated it this week because now it says that the next application cycle will begin in late August which is perfect because I'm done August 1st. Thank you all so much for the advice!!!! I really appreciate it. I don't know much about Charlotte (although I heard it's really becoming a new up and coming place to live for young professionals). If I have any other questions, I'll probably be on here asking again :)

    Hi everyone! I'm graduating from Villanova's Accelerated BSN Program August 1st. I plan on taking my NCLEX in September as soon as I am authorized to test. I'm moving to Charlotte, NC this fall as my boyfriend is taking a job down there and I really want to go into pediatrics. I've done a little bit of research and I think Levine Children's Hospital is an ideal place for me to begin my career. How receptive is the hospital to hiring new graduates? When should I start interviewing/applying? What is the starting pay? Any kind of info regarding the area and nursing would be extremely helpful!! Thank so much!! :)
