After graduating in April I accepted a job in my dream area (NICU) in Houston at the end of September. Today was my 2nd day of orientation. So thankful to start out where I know I have always wanted to be :loveya: Dont give up!
I am going in for a interview tomorrow with woman's for the nicu and was wondering if anyone had done interviews with them and what they were like or what to expect. Im so nervous!

I had been calling the nurse recruiter and she told me last time i talked to her before i had an interview that she probably wouldnt post a new grad position online since she already had so many people emailing and calling her about it. So my advice ...

Thanks for the info! At least once you get the internship experience you can move around to another hospital that is closer to home, that is what i am planning on if i get a job outside of houston. Have an interview Tuesday and am so anxious that thi...

Congrats on your new job! Do you mind if i ask at which hospital? Im in Houston and am still trying to find out which hospitals hire new grads. I would def. have to move though, but if its my dream job i would in a heartbeat!

I wonder why they havent sent us any confirmation when interviews were supposed to start on the 21st...it makes me feel like im missing out but i dont know if anyone has had an interview yet
Dramaangel621 replied to CPhT2RNstudent's topic in Texas
I too have not gotten a confirmation email for my application. I tried calling corporate cause thats what someone told me to do but i keep getting voicemails and leaving messages..but no one replied. I ended up putting "all facilities" on my applicat...

Thats what the nurse recruiter told me...it all depends on the need they have so maybe they had alot of need! I didnt apply at the tmc location so i cant account for that one last time but UTMB hired i think 4 and Clear Lake Regional 2 and Hermann SW...
Dramaangel621 replied to Dramaangel621's topic in Texas
alot of hospitals in houston dont even hire into the nicu for internships unfortunately..and if they do its very very very few people. I tried this last time around and didnt get anything so i have had to consider a few more areas just to try to get ...
