   Seattle Children's August 2024 Residency

   JustKeepRiding replied to Kylie Miller's topic in Residency

   Ooo good luck!! A lot of people must have applied because I checked the day after it opened & most units were no longer taking applications 😳🥲 (but maybe that was a glitch? IDK). I interviewed with the NICU & start later this month. I've neve...

   Seattle Children's August 2024 Residency

   JustKeepRiding replied to Kylie Miller's topic in Residency

   Hi! I'll be starting in the NICU & this was the only unit I wanted to be considered for (I could be wrong, but I think it asks if you only want to be considered for your top choice). I graduated with my BSN! For reference, I applied the ...

   Seattle Children's August 2024 Residency

   JustKeepRiding replied to Kylie Miller's topic in Residency

   I didn't know Benioff offers an actual residency? I thought it was just an RN 1 position for new grads LOL. I applied to Stanford Children's for this Spring & it was easily the most time consuming process out of all the hospitals I applied to 🙃. ...

   Seattle Children's August 2024 Residency

   JustKeepRiding replied to Kylie Miller's topic in Residency

   Congrats on graduating 😊! I went to nursing school here in the Bay & had been applying for residencies since September. As much as I love it here I applied to Seattle Children's on a whim just to see what would happen because it's so hard to get ...

   Hey! It's been a minute but as we've gotten closer to our start date, would you want to connect on Instagram or facebook? I made a page for our cohort, & have been struggling to find other people who will be joining us.

   UC Davis Residency 2024

   JustKeepRiding replied to Shynurse101's topic in Residency

   You're welcome! And congrats on accepting a new position! I precepted in a level 3 NICU, but accepted a position in a level 4. I'm in the Bay Area so I fully understand how competitive it is, especially because most of us look the same on paper/have ...

   UC Davis Residency 2024

   JustKeepRiding replied to Shynurse101's topic in Residency

   Honestly, I don't know how safe our chances are at this point. I applied for their NICU, and when I emailed HR to ask for updates about my application (which still said "routed for further consideration"), she told me that the positions had already b...

   Seattle Children's May 2024

   JustKeepRiding replied to JustKeepRiding's topic in Residency

   Yes, NICU was my 1st choice, & I put PICU at my 2nd! And yes, their website talks about how it's important to apply early because those who do will be the ones to receive the first potential interviews & offer extensions. The turn around time...

    Seattle Children's May 2024

    JustKeepRiding replied to JustKeepRiding's topic in Residency

    You're very welcome ?! I applied the day that the application opened (January 13th), & received a call from recruitment the next day to schedule a phone screening/interview & that took place about 2-3 days later. You'll do the phone ...

    JustKeepRiding replied to JustKeepRiding's topic in Residency

    Hey, congrats on being so close to graduating! I did my senior preceptorship in a level 3 NICU, but other than that I did not have any NICU or peds experience (besides peds clinical in school). My initial phone interview with the recruiter was very g...

    JustKeepRiding replied to spacekitten9643's topic in General Nursing

    Gotcha! That's totally different than what I was thinking LOL. Here in CA a lot of the major hospitals have a "clinical ladder,” which is basically when you're considered an "RN I" during your first year, then you become an "RN II" in your 2nd year, ...

    I'm almost positive that the recruiter had said rotating every 6 weeks for the 1st year, then we go to nights permanently.
