I don't know anyone who got the references email and didn't get the job from my class and friend. I would say that's normal and what happened to me, and a really good sign you got the job.

Wondering how long after "checkster" online reference check closed until you or your classmates heard a final decision...

Hello, 

Can someone please offer some information based on your experience in the new grad program at Grossmont? I will be starting soon and wanted to know a little more regarding the schedule. Are classes weekly for a month before transitioning onto the floor? Any information on the format of the program will be extremely helpful! Also, is there a specific scrub color that is to be worn for different units? Thank you in advance!

Congrats on the offer. Which unit?

no colored scrub requirement - OR and OB do change into surgical scrubs

for the first month you will have new grad classes and training in EPIC and HR stuff. Our cohort was primarily in person but had 2-3 online days. Most days are 6-8hrs long. There's a skills week in that first month where you have 3 shifts on your unit no assigned patients/charting just practice skills and learning your unit. Then you will start orientation shifts 2 shifts and then other days NG classes. Your unit CNS will be in touch with your floor schedule, and the new grad educator will email the class schedule a week or two before you start.

I will be on the BH unit. Thank you so much for the additional information!
