I am going to be a new BSN grad in december and am very interested in finding a great graduate nurse residency program. I am not very particular on a location- I would like to stay on the East Coast if possible.. but like I said I'm not very particul...

I have a potential interview at UVA for their new grad residency program on Sept 15th.. Any advice on the new grad residency- or UVA hospital in general would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm a soon to be new-december BSN grad... I've been talking to a recruiter at GUH who seems great and am planning on coming to the all day open house/ interview on October 25th.. Anyone done this all day open house/ interview before.. Any advice ...

I too am starting Jan 26 and am coming from out of state. I was really interested in working somewhere with the new grad residency program. I interviewed at UVA, NY presbyterian, Georgetown and Vandy. While the pay was the lowest at Vandy- the thing ...

I wish I could tell you Charleston is the place to be. I'm just graduated from MUSC. There are a couple of big hospitals, MUSC, Roper, and Trident Medical Center. MUSC is in a financial crisis they expanded and built a hospital that was out of their ...

we were told that's what would happen..

I agree with the other posters.. most places by 2015 are making the new NP standard degree a doctorate level degree.. so NP degrees aren't being done away with- they are just upping the anti on the education level

I just got my offer letter for a position as a New Graduate Nurse Resident in Critical Care and am so excited. Anyone else? If so-are you taking it? It's a move for me as I don't really know anyone in the area.. but I keep thinking about the program ...

Anybody decided where they are moving yet?? I've started looking but I'm a very indecisive person

The MSN program at MUSC whether it's BSN-MSN, ASN-MSN or just MSN is about to shut down. I'm a BSN student graduating in December from MUSC and my class is the last class that can go through the MSN program. They have to start in January and go full ...

Maybe you should call...... They might have gotten it mixed up. seriously I would call! Why would they want to hire someone to work somewhere where they had NO interest. Doesn't sound like that would make for a happy new graduate

Hey guys! RoxieJay- I saw you interviewed today- How did it go? I'm a week from Wednesday- October 29th. My first choice was adult critical care/ then peds.. I'm excited. Any tidbits of info to share? By the way- did anyone who interviewed get shift ...

Hey! NYP cornell- every new graduate that is hired is in the residency program for 12 months. This does not replace however long you are in orientation. Rey Rivera, the recruiter said that your residency cohort depends on your orientation state/finis...

I just met with the residency coordinator at NYP Columbia- and let me just say I was so impressed. With the program, with the hospitals. The new graduate nurse residency coordinator is phenomenal. I'm obviously not in the program (yet!) but from ever...

For anyone that hasn't had their interview yet.. I did a phone interview.. They were very nice. They asked a lot of questions.. Most of them you expected.. personal strengths and weaknesses, team work etc.. but a few really threw me off.. ex: when wa...

Thanks for all the info. To the people that wanted to know about the interview. My interview is a phone interview Friday as I had a school conflict that I couldn't get out of- so I really can't tell you what to expect until after Friday Morning. My...

Cammy- That's so good to hear! one more question.. Did you have tech experience (lpn/patient care tech) something before you applied? I have had previous jobs but none in healthcare- my program was an Accelerated- bsn and it left NO time to work in t...

Cammy429- Do you like NYP as a new grad? Ive been in touch with their recruiter and new grad program coordinator- and they seem awesome. I'm looking for a job for January- and they said they don't interview for January until Novemberish.. so I'm just...

Hey Everyone, I am graduating from an Accelerated BSN program in Charleston, SC in December. YAY! I tentatively registered for boards today for the second week in December. I just had some questions. I applied to NYP for a few jobs and have had great...

I am looking into new graduate residency programs and from the look of hospital websites, the only one that I could determine that had a new graduate nurse residency program was Wake Forest. I have called all these hospitals multiple times (especiall...

I don't know how you feel about relocation, but I am in an accelerated BSN program in Charleston, SC. I am at the Medical University of Sc. Our program is 16 months (4 semesters year round). We admit in both the spring and the fall.. I think the appl...

I currently live in Charleston and I would say the average rent for a two bedroom apt is around 1100$. I have not been able to find a one bedroom apt for less than 850$ (in downtown/ James Island/ Mt Pleasant area)-- i pick these areas because they a...

I also looked at New York Presbyterian and Johns Hopkins so if anyone has an specific information on those either, it would be appreciated! thanks

I have looked at a lot of these. I originally planned on Vanderbilt, but compared to EVERYWHERE else, they pay terrible. I haven't found anywhere that pays less. I contacted University of Maryland and got a great amount of information but didn't real...
