They seem to only hire out of their new to practice program.

Boredom does crazy things to people iridium...crazy things

Yeah, I think you have a really good shot at being placed where you want. From the people I have heard from in this group most people did.

Yeah just to be sure. I wanted to give a solid "YES" but wouldn't until I knew I wasn't in maternity haha

Yeah I was really nervous and emailed her once I was offered at another hospital. But Temple has been where I have wanted to be since leaving with my first degree from there. Good Luck?!? Which unit are you hoping to be on? ((I have a friend in Trauma Ortho and another in MRICU)

Cardiac ICU my dream

I was similar to Morningdew. By the way what unit have you been assigned to Morning?

I just received a position after putting probably 400+ applications out there. I was rejected by my first two interviews. Say persistent, keep a wide search area.

Cardiac, cardiac, cardiac :) and neuro is my second choice but my top three units were cardiac

You too Morningdew. What units are you interested in?

I have heard through the grapevine that they will reopen a N2P in September

One interview with a panel. I had three two of which were nurse managers and the third for me was the director of the program. (Friends of mine had a different panel) You interview alone. When you come in to the HR office there are several applicants and they bring you back one at a time (I went to the 7th floor immediately but a friend of mine waited an hour-ish) The questions while I don't remember specifics were not difficult. Straight forward. They did a wonderful job at keeping my stress level down.

MorningDew I was hired as well and also unaware of the unit. I did give my preference on units and said I would accept outside these (though not maternity its just not me!) I look forward to meeting yoU!

Good Luck, I know they are hiring in two waves. Mid August and end of August so this makes sense!

Also, just email her or call. The worst answer you can get is "no" but sometimes I think its better to have a piece of mind.
