The next application window opens July 3rd. ?

Yes and I noticed the website states new information about the program! It's listed as a year now and has the dates for each cohort posting. https://jobs.rchsd.org/residency-programs

For those that applied into NICU/PICU and got an interview and/or offer, can you share some of your experiences? Was your preceptorship in that department, how many hours, anything else that you feel really helped? TIA! ❤️

Hello just want to know if it is true that the residency pay is 25/hr? Just want to know ahead since my daycare cost an arm & a leg. TIA

@mae8 It's $26.50 per hour

It’s $26.50 during the new grad programs and then you’re paid as a clinical nurse 1 at the completion of residency. This is the collective bargaining agreement through 2020.

Thank you LinkinBSN & oceanhugger!

under new grad why is there a difference in 1&2? 1 says 26 and 2 says 39?

I thought maybe the "step 1" was during the program and you're bumped to "step 2" after the year when complete?...... but then I was confused with how a new graduate nurse (clin nurse 1) would make $43 (july 19) and a 'clinical nurse' with 5+ years experience would make less....

Step 1 is during the residency, after the 18 weeks you go to Step 2

Then at the end of the year, you jump up again

No but I interviewed today too and am dying to know! I'm not sure when they will reach out with their decision and never asked.

Hey! Would you mind sharing the kind of questions that were asked for the second interview? Was it similar to the first? Thank you!
