@Rabuscar: I also passed the NPE last October 28, 2011, and have submitted the requirements 2 weeks after the results were posted. I was then referred to a lady assigned at the Nursing Director Office to get a schedule for a Panel Interview. I have been scheduled tentatively this coming month. :) Its good to know that we are in the same batch. It's nice to know someone who's going with the same process. May I have your email address? I PM-ed you already, however you haven't reached the required number of posts, yet. I don't know if you'll receive my message. Thanks and God bless.

Thanks Nars for your reply. Now, I know that I have to wait patiently. I am not yet confident if I will pass the interviews. However, knowing how is it being done makes me feel at ease. May I know if the questions during the interview were personal or nursing related? I wish that you'll finally be deployed when the year starts. :)

Thanks, Drifter! Now, I understand. The form that I should get is the downloadable one. Do you know what's next after the NPE? I will be completing my requirements this week and hopefully wait for the their notice. How long do I need to wait? Thanks a lot!

Is DNET only releases limited number of forms? The downloadable form and forms that are being distributed at DNET, are they different? I accessed the said form using the PGH group website. Is there a need for me to get it at DNET, personally? Thanks!

Thanks molly :)

I would like to ask those who passed their application at PGH. How long is the processing time? I know someone who works from that institution who happens to be a nurse (managerial position). My mom gave my name already and I was asked to pass my requirements. However, I am hesitant because as I have read from the previous post it take years before you could get hired. Should I pursue? Is it worth the wait if ever? Do I have to undergo the training? Replies will be much appreciated. Thank you!

I am included in the rank 51-55 how come I haven't got any call from them?

Government Hospital (Provincial) 150 Bed Capacity Nurse I - 12 Nurse II - 16 Nurse III - 20 It also depends on the number of years in service School Nurse (University) - 16 Public Health Nurse (Municipal Health Office) -16

Is this for training or employment?

For you to have a first hand information whether or not they are accepting or not, you should call them. You can look for it on the internet or PM me for the number. As what I know, a friend already called HRD of Hospital of Infant Jesus if they are still open for staff nurse. She was told that they are on freeze hiring after October 15, 2010, the date where they will be calling in applicants for pre-employment interview. For the moment they are now finalizing the list of trainees that will start this November. I already had my interview last Monday. Still waiting for their call this coming month. Good luck to us all and God Bless!

Yes, Hospital of Infant Jesus is in need of staff nurse. According to the person who works at the said hospital, after the interview, comes the training for 2 months. Upon completion of the said training, trainees will be evaluated based on their performance. Those who will qualify will be given an opportunity to be a nurse reliever (or probationary perhaps) then will be hired. I have no idea as to how long the process will be. One thing is for sure, not all who completed the training will be hired.

zenki may I know what is it that your waiting for?

Any updates from Hospital of Infant Jesus? They already have contacted some applicants for an interview.

if its true that chmc has a 150 bed capacity, i think that they would only be needing less than a hundred nurses to be employed. i have worked from a hospital who has the same bed capacity as chmc. we are more than 50 nursing personnel (inclusive of staff nurses, seniors, supervisors and nurse managers). lets do some math :) a tertiary hospital is composed of 4 wards (medical ward, surgery ward, pediatric ward, obstetric ward) there are 3 staff nurse per shift, 1 reliever, 1 senior, 1 supervisor. this amounts to 24 nursing personnel to the usual wards. it also has specialized area (or-dr, er, nicu, icu, opd, dialysis unit, etc.) they also have are 3 staff nurse per shift, 1 reliever, 1 senior, 1 supervisor. this amounts to roughly around 36 nursing personnel. more or less 60 nurses are needed for a 150 bed capacity to operate.. i am sure it could not be more than 100.. :) i am not saying that they won't be hiring more than that.. i just want to share given the experience to work in a similar hospital what i know of the usual number of nurses hired. guys keep it up.. :)

Hi Azli :) It's OK. I understand that you are waiting for someone's reply for you to inform me. Anyway, how's your job hunting going on?
