Oh no!! That’s concerning ? I also applied for ICU step down as well. I’m just at a loss! I have 5 years’ experience in Med/Surg, ER, and ICU... Externship, completed ACLS already, and actively involved in multiple nursing organizations. I’m wondering if they just didn’t like the way I interviewed, or if it was a personality clash, or what ☹️ I felt like a strong candidate going in and thought the interview went really well! Kinda feel like a terrible candidate now though LOL

Ooooh OK. That’s understandable. Thank you. Then I’ll just hold off on contacting her again for a bit.

I’m jealous you guys are hearing back! I emailed the recruiter requesting feedback on my interview & application process to get a better idea on what I can work on to make it into the ICU during the next hiring cohort. After hearing nothing (despite two emails) I finally messaged the manager on LinkedIn directly to see if they could share some feedback, and simply received a message back to “check with the recruiter.” Not gonna lie.... super frustrating process. I am at a total loss as to what it is that failed to land me a spot. Anywhere, for that matter! Grrrrrrrrr

Hi everyone! I finally received my rejection letter from the MICU, and have not received any offers for Med/Surg departments. I went ahead and emailed the nurse residency recruiter to inquire as to what it is that I need to improve/work on for future success. I’ll be reapplying next cohort to see if I can make it in then! In the meantime, CONGRATS again everyone!! If anyone wants to keep me in mind for their departments let me know ?

OK thank you!

OH! To add to that, did your guys' application status change on the portal? I know I asked before but don't think anyone answered back on that. Mine still says "Interviewing," and I wasn't sure if it'll change if they decide to/not to extend an offer.

CONGRATS! That is awesome! I interviewed for the MICU too but unfortunately don't think I'll be receiving an offer, as everyone's already heard back and secured their spots! Please think of me in the future hahahahaha. I'm going to simply reapply this Winter, fingers crossed!

I totally get that. I feel where you're coming from. Things to take into consideration: cardiac telemetry would be great for basics (since you're aiming for CVICU), and once you're in on that position, you're an internal candidate for Grady... thus higher preference for consideration for future positions that open up. Could reapply for the Winter RN residency cohort for CVICU and by then not only have experience on cardiac floor, you'll have about 6 months experience AND be an internal candidate. I'd say the odds would be in your favor. Worse comes to worst you don't get to transfer in 6 months? Then go ahead and apply to other hospitals for their ICUs and say PEACE!! LOL. I still haven't been offered nada. I wonder if they'd even reach out to offer me Med/Surg. I also wonder if I'll be in my grave by the time they email me back LOL.

Ah OK, thank you for responding!!

I wish I had even heard something back LOL. But I haven't heard anyone from MICU (who I'm waiting on) even state they received an official offer, yet. It really seems like the hiring process moves sloooowwwwww. EDIT: has any of your guys' application statuses changed? Mine still says "interviewing".

Awesome sauce. CONGRATS again, that is so awesome! Not gonna lie, I'm envious!!

Does it come through the same person who oversees the nursing residency (we can't put names on this site, so I have to word it like that LOL)? Or did it come from the managers of the unit, themselves? Edit: and CONGRATS! That is so exciting!

CONGRATS! Wait are they sending them out this late in the afternoon? I wonder how late they'll be rolling out! I still haven't received an official rejection letter yet from MICU! I wish they'd just let me knooowwwwwww LOL.

CONGRATS!!!!! OMG that is awesome!!! Go and celebrate!
