  1. Their version of an "on-demand" interview is basically just answering questions on video. I haven't completed mine yet, but I think you only have one shot at recording yourself answering each...
  2. It was the ER fellowship. I haven't applied to the others yet, but I'll do that today. I applied on 08/18. I do have previous experience. I have been working as a dialysis nurse for...
  3. New Graduate Nurse NYC

    This is still my experience with a BSN, RN license and almost 6 months of chronic dialysis experience. Those hospitals are very hard to get into without connections or experience. Don’t give up,...
  4. I didn’t submit a cover letter. But today I received a request for an on-demand
  5. I applied a few days ago to the ER fellowship. But I also plan on applying to the PICU and critical care fellowships. I’m wishing us all the best of
  6. NYP Hiring Process

    A few of you started last week. How’re things going so
  7. Your own choice! That's the difference. But I wouldn't choose to work that much over time, especially not for a specialty I do not like and care nothing about. I don't feel bad for you for doing so...
  8. I am. I believe it’s federal law that employees who work over 40 hours get paid overtime. Either way, I would rather have more time
  9. I was shocked until I found out that you have an ASN. NYC hospitals are competitive and NYS requires its nurses to have BSNs (with a few exceptions). It’s unfair. I think ASN nurses are just as...
  10. My experience seems to be rare, but my career as a new grad working in an outpatient DaVita clinic has sucked. Here's a little insight: My hours are atrocious. Every Monday, I usually work 5a-7p,...
  11. Dialysis Nursing not for me?

    This post is almost a year old, but I just wanted to say that I'm going through the exact same thing right now. I hope you were able to find something
  12. This week is 49 hours, next week is 45 hours. So, 94 hours in total (but I put 90+ instead) for the first two weeks of August. If I wanted to work 5 days a week back-to-back, I would've chosen a 9-5...
  13. The good ,the bad and....tell me

    It doesn’t work like that here. My facility administrator sets the schedule. Sometimes she’ll change it around depending on what’s going on, but that’s about it. I haven’t floated to...
  14. New to Dialysis

    I was in the same boat on my second day of training at DaVita. I just hit 4 months about a week ago and I'm pretty much a pro at setting up machines. It takes time! Don't expect to be an expert in...
  15. The good ,the bad and....tell me

    I don't like it. Sure, there's a routine but it can be quite chaotic during turnover (when patients are coming on/off). Also, sometimes patients will pass out and you'll have to deal with that as...
  16. DaVita is a mess. It is completely chaotic; at least the one where I work is. I cannot wait to leave. I definitely would speak to your
  17. Hello, I was wondering if any NY nurses on here have recently applied for an NJ license through endorsement. If so, how long did it take for your license to number to be posted/you to receive it...
  18. Recruitment Timeline

    Finally, something I can help with. I'm not sure if you'll be able to start next month, but hopefully, you'll be able to start soon. I had an interview with the clinical managers the day after my...
  19. Acute Dialysis as a New Grad?

    Hello, I just wanted to reach out to you and thank you so much for responding to my question. I ended up accepting the position. I am very excited to start. Thank you again for your
  20. Acute Dialysis as a New Grad?

    Hello! I received an offer from DaVita. It’ll be in chronics at a local clinic. Would any new graduates like to share how their time at Davita is
  21. Thoughts from a brand new dialysis nurse

    Thank you! I think my phone interview went decently. The video interview I had with a hiring manager wasn't what I expected. They didn't ask me any of the questions I had practiced except for "tell me...
  22. Thoughts from a brand new dialysis nurse

    Hi, everyone! I have a phone interview scheduled with a recruiter from DaVita early next week. Any tips? I'm super nervous. This is my first interview as a new grad nurse. I'm not even sure how...
  23. Mount Sinai NYC New Grad

    Did you end up ever hearing back from
  24. New York New Grad

    Hello! Glad to hear that you finally found a position! If I may ask, did you include a cover letter with your Stony Brook applications? I’m not sure if I should add one or
  25. Northwell Health January 2021 Fellowships

    I guess I should give up hope. I applied almost two weeks ago and haven’t heard anything back yet. I’m happy for those who heard something from them and I hope you’ll be chosen for the...
