Hi Tee_byrd...I just want to learn more about the process you went through. I am a new grad and I talked to a medical Navy recruiter. I'm almost done with my Nurse Corps Application except for the reference but I just want to know how long did you have to wait before you found out that you got in? And also if there is a chance for a new grad like me, because I kept asking my recruiter what my chance is, but he keeps saying that it's better to have experience and that it's very competitive. For a new grad I guess my best shot is my GPA, which I have above 3.5 ...I mean I don't want to get my hopes up that I would get picked, but I just want to know if the military even considers new grad, and if they do, how many do you think do they pick every fiscal year. Were you a new grad as well?

Does the bonus apply for both active and reserve? and do you have to have experience to get the bonus?

Did anybody here get a call for an interview for the Scripps New Grad Program for the Summer?

Has anyone been called today for those who were interviewed at Sharp Chula Vista?

I ended up turning down this great opportunity. However I'm still waiting for the result of the two interviews I just had and I will have my next interview this Friday and I hope I still continue to get calls for interview. Keeping my fingers crossed.

For those who just got interviewed at Sharp Chula Vista last week, when would they let you know if you got accepted or not?

Hi Laura... Thanks for the reply. Did you have the interview at Sharp Chula Vista? Were there a lot of behavioral questions too? coz I read from different posts that most of the interview questions are behavioral. I just don't know if it just depends on which Sharp the interview is. Did the interview last for an hour? Also, what's an ATI book? Is it the same as the Kaplan review book? Thanks!

Is this for adult residency or peds? coz I don't see any new grad posting for the adult unit. Thanks!

I called them and asked for how many applicants they are interviewing, and the lady said it depends on which group/batch you are in. For the first one I think there are 16, and for the second one there are 14 so far. She doesn't know how many positions available but she said we could ask during our panel interview. Good luck to us :yelclap:

How was the interview like? I was told that there would be 7 interviewers at the most...This will be my first panel interview so I'm kinda nervous :confused:

Seems like everyone agrees that Clovis is the best are to live in...This is actually out of topic but I've been getting multiple calls for interviews here in my area after I accepted the job offer in Fresno..now I don't know what to do.:uhoh3::uhoh3:

I think I will go ahead and continue my orientation with this company and still attend to those interviews if I could…I’ll worry about dealing with the manager later if I do get a better offer close by where I live. Update me on how you’re doing with your other interviews…and if you do get hired in the residency program, let me know how you handle it with the agency. I really hope you get the job in the residency program. Good luck to both of us! =D

@bshres: I just don't know how I would deal with it later when I get a better deal. When the manager interviewed me, she said that she would like her new hires to be working for them for 2-3 years, because they will be spending a lot of money on me and I said I had no problem with that...If I quit earlier than that, say 3 months or so...that's even worse because they already spent money on me vs quitting now that I haven't started. Like you, I also feel that I'm selfish if I do that...but again it's all business. It's me vs. the company...and I should worry about myself first than them...I just don't know how I would deal with this situation. By the way good luck with your orientation and your interview. I hope you get the job that you want. =)

For those who got a call from Sharp Chula Vista, were you told to have a phone interview? because I was only told to go attend the panel interview.

I also got a call for Sharp Chula Vista Tele/Med Surg. I was told that there are 7 interviewers at the most...kind of nervous because this will be my first panel interview.
