Has anyone from 6NE/6NW (surgical cardio/transplant SDU) already been emailed the reference survey email?

@csuf123 during the connectivity test he said you have 72 hours from receiving the email to complete it.

This morning I had a 3-panel interview for 6NE / 6NW. It lasted 26 minutes & IDK how many questions I got asked but it was a mix of clinical/situational & behavioral questions. I was too shy to ask them when we would hear back by but based on what was said during the connectivity test last week we should be hearing back by Tuesday. I haven’t received the email containing the reference survey yet. Anyhow, BEST OF LUCK EVERYONE. ?

@csuf123 hey there! I actually didn’t go through the interview process. I just read old threads. I’m pretty sure it’s nurse managers, directors, etc.

@AlohaRN Thank you SO MUCH for that info! ?

@KeviK I believe there was only one PCU option available to pick from on the application but I could be remembering wrong! For my first choice, I selected the PCU option that included both 6NE & 6NW.

Thank you! I hope you hear back! My 1st choice was PCU & my 2nd choice was tele. I have an interview for my 1st choice!

I received my official interview date/time/unit 2 hours ago. Check your email!

I haven't received the email confirming which department & the exact interview date. However, when I log in & go to "My Jobpage/My Submissions" & click "View Email Messages" I see two items, one item is the automated message you receive when you apply & the other item says: Subject: Create Case - Schedule Phone Screen From: Cedars-Sinai Careers Sent date: Aug 17, 2021 Although it says it was sent today, I don't have an email from them. I checked my spam as well. Maybe we will be hearing something in the morning! ?

HI! ? Does anyone have any interview tips for MICU or UCI in general? I applied 05/27/21 so I was surprised when they called me months later on 08/13/21 regarding an interview for 08/19/21. How many people do they usually accept for the cohort or per unit?

Hello! ? I heard back last week but won’t know which department I’ll be interviewing with yet until the beginning of this week. My 1st choice was: “6NE - PCU - Surgical Stepdown/Transplant - Cardiac and 6NW - PCU - Surgical Stepdown/Transplant - Liver & Kidney” & my 2nd choice was: ”5N - Cardiac Telemetry.”

Thank you! I'm actually an external applicant. However, from what I've heard in the past, most people who get into their nurse residency program are either internal or have a referral from an internal employee. There's still time to get contacted. I'm sure it also depends on the units you put as your preference. GOOD LUCK! ?

This morning I received 2 emails stating I was selected for the next round of the interview process & there were also instructions for the connectivity test which ensures our webcam/microphone/etc. are working properly for the interview.

Hello there! I applied to Surgical Stepdown/Transplant & Telemetry. They don't take too long (although it sure feels like it) to reach out to applicants to schedule interviews. The interviews will be on September 1st & 2nd so I'm guessing they would probably let us know within the next 2-ish weeks. The last cohort (Summer '21) played out like this: May 25th: Applications open June 7th: People started receiving rejection emails. Some received them earlier if they didn't meet basic requirements like providing transcripts, RN license, etc. I heard the application status will change to "No Longer Under Consideration" when they get the rejection email. (Oddly, my status never changed until August 2nd which was the day applications opened for THIS cohort...may my application was never opened?) End of June: Interviews were held. July 2nd: People began receiving job offers. Regarding the referrals, I'm sure they help! I know internal applicants get priority of course. Anyhow, if I hear anything I'll post an update here. I hope their cohort is large this time! Best of luck to everyone! ?

What are the best organizations for nurses who want to volunteer in third-world countries besides the American Red Cross & Doctors W/O Borders? I see some on Google of course but I would like to hear of some from people who have actually worked with the organizations or know someone who has. Thank you!
