Rady Children's October 2017

Published

Just a thread for the applicants of Rady Children's hospital RN Residency for October 2017. My first choice was NICU and second choice was heme-onc! Has anyone heard anything?

Hem/Onc!

Congrats!!! I just got a call for an interview on Hem/Onc as well!! Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us! Not sure what types of questions to expect though, so if anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it!

I had a status change on 8/16 - it turned yellow and says "Your application has been reviewed and is currently being considered to determine if you are one of the most qualified applicants. Please note that due to the number of applicants, not all will be interviewed. If selected for an interview, the department leadership will contact you. We invite you to log back on in the next few days to determine if there is a status change. Thank you and Best Regards. Rady Children's Recruitment Team" BUT NOW - it is no longer yellow, and says in application history 0 status changes. Is that because it changes back to a normal background after you view the change??? OR was the status change a mistake... ? I applied cvicu & nicu and no call for interview or anything except for that one change.

the yellow background means it's a new status change. Once you look at it, it will go back to the normal background color the next time you login.

oh my goodness - thank you!! At first glance I thought "no they've made a mistake with me! They really didn't want to refer me!" I'm in the paranoia stage. It seems that heme/onc is definitely doing interviews, but i haven't seen anyone else say any other unit has called.

I work there now as a PCA and heard this weekend that they aren't even hiring in the ED this cohort which is frustrating since that was my first choice. My second choice was NICU but my cover letter was really geared toward ED because my supervisor told me that typically they get so many applications that they only look at your first choice. I fee like my application was wasted now bc NICU won't take my resume seriously with an ED cover letter and ED isn't hiring. My supervisor also convinced me to put ED as my first choice because she said I sounded more passionate about it which would be reflected in my interview. I took her advice and immediately regretted it and knew I wanted NICU. So frustrating. :(

Has anyone heard anything from NICU? Is it just Heme/Onc now that's heard anything? I applied to NICU as first and Heme/onc second, and haven't had a change in status. Just wondering if I should give up on this application or if NICU hasn't done anything yet.

I know someone who works interview NICU and according to them - NICU isn't even hiring. Apparently a few departments said they were- but they're not. It IS frustrating.

Spoke to the nurse recruiter this afternoon and she basically said NICU is filled up. However, she did send my application to my second choice unit (CVICU)

I didn't realize that the nurse recruiter would give out that info! Thanks for posting. That was also my second choice unit. Which recruiter was it? Did she say when the unit might start contacting people?

her name began with an L but she did not give a timeline

Is there any chance that they might cancel the new grad program for this cohort?/:
