   You’re assigned the clinical site for the duration of that semester, so again for example: I was at Kaiser Woodland Hills for Nursing Fundamentals in the Summer, then at Cedars for Med Surg 1 and Huntington in Pasadena for Psych. Unless it’s Spring s...

   ^ in addition: these are only sites our cohort had. Other cohorts may or may not have had the same sites. But the ones that are almost always constant are: LAC USC, Cedars, Huntington, and Children’s.

4. CSULA ABSN Summer 2021

   etchensketch replied to AspiringNurseLeader's topic in School Programs

   Great question, and I’m sure they’ll answer that better during orientation (which I might drop in on ? ) but from what I remember atleast for our cohort, our clinicals were always different sites each semester (rarely the same). You’re a class of 30 ...

   etchensketch replied to AspiringNurseLeader's topic in School Programs

   That’s just a disclaimer, mostly referring to hospitals having the right to not accept students for clinicals due to unique circumstances such as a pandemic. Our cohort (#16) was the first to experience this - even with 5 months left of the program a...

   If you remember putting your home phone on your app (in addition to your cell phone) check that as well. I missed my phone call because she called my house. She didn’t leave a voicemail either, so if you miss it, check your emails ? (I’m from 2 cohor...

   etchensketch replied to AspiringNurseLeader's topic in School Programs

   Practice answering typical interview questions: tell me about yourself, how did you get into nursing, what makes a good nurse, how would your colleagues describe you, strengths and weaknesses. You may get asked a behavioral question or two. Stay away...

    Don’t ever wait for County to contact you first. Always be proactive. Let them know you passed the test with X score and would like to interview for open positions. I interviewed for Harbor and got offered a position on the spot. I also am waiting to...

    etchensketch replied to newgradCA2020's topic in Career Support

    Hi! On the same boat as those who have not received an invite to interview. I’m confused as well since I felt really good about my application and thought I’d have a shot. My status still says under consideration as of the 17th. Did anyone here actua...

    Yes they’ve held interviews since last week, but they’re starting with internal applicants and Huntington has a lot of Student Nurse Interns / Residents who have been interviewing. Some have been offered already. And I’d say the virtual intervi...
