So who all is starting at Swedish this August? I accepted a spot in med/surg - ortho on the First Hill campus. Looking forward to starting, but have some nerves about going into nursing during this pandemic! Especially because I know the ortho unit turned into a Covid unit due to it's private, negative air flow rooms. But I think most units became a Covid unit during the peak.

I received an invitation to interview as well with them for the Ortho unit. I'm interviewing next week, I am also curious what the interview process will be like if anyone has experience interviewing with Swedish!

Interesting @chemistRN, how did you get an interview in the ED if there are only psych and med/surg units available? Did you have connections to that ED then?

When I talked to the recruiter a few weeks ago she said they already had a lot of interviews lined up for most of the positions except for med/surg which shocked me since I thought it was still early in the process. I haven't heard back since submitting the video interview but will probably call them next week to see what the status is. I'd be curious to see if anyone has interviewed yet. Have any of you guys applied elsewhere in the Seattle area and heard back? I've applied to 5+ hospitals and have only heard back from one so far.

When did you submit your application? Are you sure you didn't get an invitation for the video interview? Subject would be "Montage Invitation", not super obvious that it is an invitation from Swedish. I got this email very soon after applying, so I think it is an automated process that all applicants receive - I don't think they even checked my resume or application before sending out the invite.

I applied too, submitted me video interview 3-4 weeks ago and haven't heard anything yet. I talked to a recruiter right before turning in my interview and they said they already had a ton of applicants lined up for interviews which I thought was odd since it was early March. When did you turn in your application and video?
