Just wanted to update: I was interviewed for Kaiser San Diego on Thursday and I got a call today with an offer for one of the New Grad spots!! Was wondering if anyone else has received an offer and what day did you interview?

No idea, but it's expensive to go through the panel interviews so I'm guessing that they are hiring more than what people think. I know that they are interviewing a bunch of people based on all of the time options that he gave me.

I have a friend who got into their last New Grad program and she said that they call over 2-3 days...she wasn't called until a couple days after a friend of hers was called and that's how she knows. So there's still hope for the rest of us!!

Do you think they will make phone calls today, tomorrow?? Or do you all think that they'll wait until next week? I was handling the wait pretty well...until just now, lol.
Do both of you already have your RN license? I have heard that they prefer candidates to already be licensed. Also, I emailed the manager of the MICU and CC'd the director of critical care b/c I was able to spend time with both of them. I never heard...
Did you go to SDSU? When did you graduate? I emailed the manager twice. I did my leadership rotation at Chula Vista and really liked all of the managers, CNS's, and staff...that's why I only applied for that location.
