I'm an external with my ADN. I worked as a CNA/Tele Tech/Healthcare Partner/Unit clerk at Sharp for 4 ish years. I singled out the manager whose unit I had several clinical rotations at and made sure to reiterate that in my thank you letter (and thanking her for inviting my school to her unit.) For distinction, I just quickly glossed over my work while in school (working part-time, being involved in my school chapter of CNSA as a director, volunteering, etc) and I discussed how important teamwork and collaboration was in my professional development and how my first goal in any situation is to 1.form a team or 2. Assimilate into a team. I really focused on wanting to learn and expressing a desire in furthering my education. One of the hiring managers at Sharp told me that as impressive as portfolios can be, nearly everyone has the same credentials. What matters the most is your personality and how well it can mesh with the manager's unit. When you're talking about your future plans, KISS. Don't talk about where you want to be. Talk about what you'll be doing (for me it was about wanting to become a preceptor and teaching new grads and students.) That's all I can think of from 2 weeks ago. I hope this helps! Good luck everyone!

I got my rejection email today but apparently I was identified as an alternate in the event that someone rejected the offer. Well they did and I recieved an offer at Mercy Hillcrest.

I just looked on the previous cohort's thread and it looks like they didn't hear until the Tuesday 2 weeks following their interview. So fingers crossed that we hear tomorrow!

Hello everyone, I also applied for this cohort and am currently under manager review. I'm an RN-ADN who graduated 2 months ago. I got my license number the night the applications posted. I'm enrolled in a BSN program that's set to start in August. Good luck and fingers crossed for all of us!
