I think you can be positive or negative this is a thread that you should feel comfortable to share how you feel. I think people are just expressing their thoughts on the whole process. Of course I am still staying positive, otherwise I would have already given up.

Here here...maybe some of you have been looking a few months. Get to over 8 months of looking and get back to me on your mindset. Seriously I dont think I will get into a hospital at this point and I might be fine with it.

I'm an external applicant and just got a call at about 7pm on the east coast for a preliminary interview. My primary choice was the CVICU, so I'm not sure if they have contacted for other areas

Congrats jc2011 for getting an interview! :yeah:I can only hope that maybe I will get a call as well. I applied for for NICU as my first choice and PICU as my second choice. Has anyone else received phone calls for an interview? I think theres still hope for all of us.

Hello gang,

Wow.....Allie, that is superb !! You will be working at a magnet hospital. I received a call this early morning from CHLA for the interview and of course you are so way....ahead of me, you've got a job and for me is just a preliminary (pre-screening) interview.

So...you belong to California after all ! Congrats again. :yeah:
