Anybody else heard anything??

I think about 30-40 people and they picked 10. There was a total of 355 applications from what I have heard!

Yes they called yesterday and told me that I was chosen and they had an offer for me. She will call back formally next week with the details... Good luck to you...I am sure they haven't called everybody yet and hopefully you get that phone call very soon!

Just got an offer!!!! YAAAYYY!!!

I am starting to get nervous every time the phone rings....

Hi sophhusk! Congratulations on your interview!! Unfortunately I had the same problem and realized I forgot to ask for their email. But I did email a thank you note to the HR lady and mentioned to also thank the other managers I met with. Sorry! Now fingers crossed....

Oh yes! I am constantly on my email account and I also check spam. It's ok though, I am really happy with the offer I got at my dream place!

I always do PDF and I don't think they had any problems opening it.

Very basic questions like why nursing? why NYP? and top 3 favorite specialties. Nothing crazy and that's why I don't understand the silence!! Especially when they told me "Great! We will contact you shortly to schedule an interview!!!!""????

Yes, I graduated in January and got my license in February. I don't think it should be a problem though if you can get a date for exam and/or temporary permit no? It would be weird if they even waste their time interviewing new graduates, who still don't have a license and then don't even consider them for the position! Are you currently waiting for your ATT?

Hi! I took my battery test first week in April. Had my phone interview April 17 and we left off saying that I will be contacted shortly for an interview and then never heard from them again. I find it kind of rude not to get back to a candidate, especially when they have already wasted their time on a phone interview, it would be nice to say "Sorry, no thank you!" I'll be better off knowing that, than just nothing! Anyway....got another offer :)

Congratulations teddygraham!! Wow...I can't believe they asked you for head to toe assessment! Did you meet with panel from ED, PICU and NICU?

Oh..I'm sorry. I thought you mentioned in another post that you had experience as a nursing assistant and in acute care.

I agree with Estrella. I did not know anyone who helped me with my job offer. I passed my NCLEX in February. I have been applying EVERYWHERE and I finally landed a couple of interviews and got an offer. From my experience, looking for a job it is a full time job! You have to be very diligent about your strategies. Even if you have already applied to a position at one hospital, check that website every single day for other openings. Keep an excel sheet of all the places you have applied and do a little research about nursing recruitment. Some hospital post their telephone numbers on their website. Pick up the phone and try to make that personal connection. I know it's hard and frustrating but this is what it takes. Also, how is your resume looking? Make sure when you apply on line for a position, you change the objective of your resume with the same wording used in the job description. Those words will be picked up automatically by a computer and they need to match with your resume. I totally agree...it is exhausting!! But I can honestly tell you that if you are diligent you will definitely land an interview, especially if you already have experience, which I believe you do. Good luck!

Hmmm...weird because the manager I spoke to from ED was definitely in peds! All the questions they asked me were all about peds, why peds blah...blah. Being a children hospital I assumed they also have their own ED and the ED I toured after my interview was definitely peds and not adult. I would actually prefer if it was mixed because it would be more interesting.
