ICR

Riverside is hosting interviews this Thursday barely. Did you contacted for one?

Some locations are still reviewing applications and interviewing. But I did hear that a lot of locations are only hiring 2 candidates with over 100 applications to review once they get pushed from the recruiter to the hiring unit/location. So that's what's delaying some calls.

I got an email this AM to schedule an interview. I chose Sacramento and roseville. In the email it gave me option to choose from either or for the interview. But one option is in person the other is virtual. I am internal though so don't loose hope. External invites are probably coming next. NCAL def has a better recruiting system then SCAL.

Ahhh OK gotcha! Thank you for that info (: I hope we all get a shot at an interview :) good luck :) we got this!

Not true. I'm not internal and I got placed band 1. Internals apply to different postings as well if I remember right.

All new grad positions for kaiser are med surg/ tele. And tele and med surg are not separate. Same thing. just an FYI. No specialties for new grads.

I definitely would not lose hope if you were placed in a lower band. You have the same chance as someone in a higher band. I think internal employees are the ones that get a preference over band placements. :)

This is a hit or miss to be honest. I've been placed on band 1 and never got an interview at all. And saw people from band 4-6 get calls. Bands to be honest are just rated on screenings by the recruiter. But its up to the units to reach out for interviews.

Nothing for Riverside as of yet. And that was my first choice.

Yayyy! So excited. Finally! I hope some good specialties participate this cohort.

I interviewed for Sacramento and beginning of May.

I already work for SCAL Kaiser and other things I need to consider before getting up and moving but definitely a decision to be made. Either way just got an official letter from the recruiter for the position today. Good luck to everyone else waiting! You guys got this ❤️

I don't think it'll affect the number they accept, I think honestly it's going to be better options than the March Cohort. Because that cohort only had med surg as availability. And getting specialties is nice. Also with LA participating in this cohort that means there will be more openings than the March cohort as well. The waiting game is what's nerve wrecking, but as long as they don't cancel we are good!

What location are you being considered for? The commute is long but it'll be worth it. Kaiser NCAL is hard to get into especially external you deserved it! I'm going to wait for them to reach out, they told my interview group they would tell us on 5/22 so I want to give them time. I know Kaiser recruiters get jammed with stuff so I don't blame them. I'm internal so I kinda know their hiring process takes a bit and I rather not bombard them. I'll follow up after 5/22 if they don't reach out. But during this time I'll hope SCAL opens up LOL.
