Leigh.

I think she can, but from what the other nurses have told me, she isn't someone who takes initiative. She'll apparently drag her feet until a candidate takes another job somewhere else. I want to increase my odds with this position and move it forward for her.

Hello, I am in need of some help or advice regarding a job position. So I am about to graduate and had signed up for a 2-year contract with the hospital I wanted. I was already going to apply there anyway and so it was an opportunity that I thought was worth it since they'd pay for my school tuition. However, although I completed the initial interview, they only offered to let me interview for a medsurg position instead of what I wanted. I completed the second interview for medsurg since I felt it was in my best interest; however, my primary preference is ICU. I am currently interning at the same facility in MICU. I have spoken to the clinical director about my interest, but my application is being blocked by the recruiters. How do I write an email about wanting them to send my application to the ICU team for consideration? I know there are positions available since the clinical director mentioned them to me herself. She is also interested in interviewing me and I have not accepted any offers. I know other facilities have available ICU options as well. I have applied and waiting for interviews to start, but as I mentioned, I prefer this facility. I am unsure of how to approach this situation. I don't want to burn bridges, but I really want ICU.

Thank you for the links! I thought I might have just missed the email or something since (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) said she was still editing the recording and would send it out within a week or two. I wasn’t able to attend the first one since our house flooded so yeah.

Oh cool! Thanks!

Hey guys! Super excited to be heading into August soon and going to orientation to meet everyone. Do you guys know if there’s a facebook group or anything set up for our cohort? Also did you ever get the recording for the 1st zoom meeting?

Hey Meg! Thanks for the information. Has anyone received any additional emails after the immunization ones yet?

OK, cool. I was worried for a bit there. I might just email the coordinator if I don't get it by tomorrow. Thanks guys!

Have you guys received the email with the UTHSC ID and stuff yet? I thought we were supposed to get it by now.

Since I'm applying for the ABSN, my current stats as of just my prerequisites are 4.00, but during my bachelors it was a 3.92. We aren't required - for this program anyways - to take the TSEA I believe that's what it's called so I don't have any results for that. Umm... I'm not sure what other information you'd need in terms of "stats".

Yay! I'm super excited. I just got home and opened my email. I'm in too! Congrats guys! This will be an awesome experience.

According to the interviewers, they plan to have the classes on campus, but if the restrictions are still in place, then they can do virtual. They've been doing a semi-hybrid thing with the current cohort.

That's awesome! I can't wait. Hopefully we'll all get in and be able to meet each other in person ?. Covid has been an interesting experience. I really don't like online learning with all the pre-req classes, but you gotta do what you gotta do I guess.

Oh wow, so more seats than previously predicted then? That's great! I remember seeing 78 interview time slots, so I guess if you receive an invite, your chances are pretty good. I didn't apply anywhere else, so I'm a bit of an all eggs in one case LOL I hope it works out. I'm just so antsy to find out and get it over with. Did you interview last the whole time?

I had my interview on the 1/21/21. I think/hope mine went well. They told me that after the last interview sessions, it would take another 2 weeks before they send out the decisions. So I guess the timeline for decisions should be soon. I'm so nervous! The cohort size is apparently 72, so crossing my fingers we get in.
