Providence CA RN Residency Program - August 2025 Cohort

Published

Hello, just starting a forum for Providence RN Residency Program - August 2025 Cohort, I currently work at a Providence hospital and got the email saying that internal applications opened 5/30 and external opens 6/6. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you

Hi all, don't be discouraged, applying all these new grad residency program is extremely competitive and exhausting. It's not because you're not outstanding enough, sometimes it's just because limited spots opening at that time. Last time Fullerton only had like 11 openings in total including all the units they're hiring. Last round I applied almost all of those hospitals, Providence, Cedars Sinai, USC, UCI, Hoag, MLK, Memorial Care etc, a lot of them even got interviews but still didn't get an offer. The only one I got was MLK but I was so regret that I was waiting for Cedars Sinai and didn't take MLK, unfortunately I didn't get CS. UCLA has walk in resume services to meet with the recruiter, one of them told me all these new grad positions are much more competitive than expected. Even if you didn't get in, it's OK, start somewhere small and as long as you get more experience, eventually you will be able to get into your dream hospital. Keep applying! 

Can you say more about the walk in recruiting? Is it at Ronald Reagan? I'm a  volunteer there and have not heard about this. Would love to talk to one of their recruiters for advice 🙂 Thank you !

I saw I think one person on this thread say they heard back from Fullerton & someone on FB said they heard from Fullerton & Orange (externals)

Damn, I probably didn't get it then if they already sent them all out. I cant imagine theyd send interview emails at different times for the same location. 

Hello, would anyone be able to inbox me any tips on the interview process? I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

When I got my interview slot for St Jude they only had like 6-7 slots for one day, I thought they were going to open more, but Im not so sure anymore
