Oh awesome, can't wait to meet you and @cb1288 in the NICU ? I don't think anyone has mentioned making a FB group, but I would be down to join!

Oh nice, same ? Goodluck on your NCLEX-- you got this!

Yay another NICU hire! Are you starting in March or May?

Thanks so much! I received my offer letter via email & a phone call from UCD on Tuesday. But I ended up accepting it, yesterday.

Just accepted an offer with the NICU! ?♡ It seems that more offers are still going to roll out-- so don't lose hope! Best of luck xoxo

Yes I did.

Oncology was in person. Womens health and NICU were online. That's all I know about right now.

I did bring one just in case for my in-person interview. They did not tell me to bring one when they scheduled me for the interview though LOL. For my portfolio, I included my resume, cover letter, letters of rec, transcript, certifications, nursing diploma, RN license. You can always add or more less depending on what you have. I would Google or watch YT vids about this--there is so much info out there! Hope this helps.

Yeah same! No word for me yet. I hope they let us know by this week or next. They did say that there would an internship opportunity this month before the actual residency starts in March. So I feel like they have to let us know soon! Wishing everyone good luck ❤️

I believe they said they would get back to us by the end of this month so I wouldn't lose hope just yet ? I have no clue how many ppl interviewed but when I did mine (12/10) they told me they were pretty much wrapping up interviews for their unit(s).

No, I haven't. I interviewed 12/10-- when did you interview? Hopefully we hear back soon!

Yeah of course! Good luck to you as well ?

Yeah this is something new that UCD is rolling out for the first time! Oncology and Womens Health told me about it during my interviews with them last week. The depts might mention it when they reach out to you with their decision!

So from what I was told, only the residents they choose will also be offered an externship opportunity before March. So if you told them you can start in March, then your externship would start in Jan....meaning they would have to let you know by this month. Hope that makes sense!

They didn't ? But they said that the recruiter in charge or the hiring dept will reach out to us when they have made a decision. I assume offers will be made by the end of this month since externships start in Jan. Also I found out that different depts will receive the same SkillSurvey report so your recommenders don't have to fill out different surveys for each requesting dept. Thought that was helpful to know for anyone who interviewed for diff depts!
