Hi guys, do you know if everyone receives the snapshot on the 18th or just the qualifying candidates? It's my first time applying to Kaiser.

I'm not sure! I applied last cohort but I couldn't complete the snapshot because they wanted you to have your NCLEX done early and I had just graduated. 

I wasnt able to attend the info session, do we need to submit any letters of rec? or transcripts?

also, does one application send to all locations? 

Hi everyone! I'm trying to apply as an external applicant, but I'm unable to see positions available related to the new grad program. I tried using the keywords suggested on the website too. By any chance, could anyone please provide a link or advice on how to find the application online? Thank you and wishing everyone the best on your applications! hope you can get the position you are looking for!!

Thanks so much everyone! I appreciate your help! :)). 

Also, are there other new grad RN programs you guys are looking into as well? I think one for Providence is coming up this December (maybe Dec. 18th?) and I saw that Torrance Memorial said mid January they will open apps.

Hello everyone!

Posting to stay updated.

Does anyone know what exactly Career Snapshot is? And is there a time commitment for the new graduate residency? (like you need to work at least 2 years for us after the completion of the residency)

I submitted rec letters but not transcripts. It says you can pick locations once they send the snapshot. I think it was too three last time but I can't be sure.

I don't remember all the questions from the snapshot since I only got to the portion that said I needed my NCLEX done like within 2 weeks and I had just graduated recently and I didn't wanna rush. I believe it was locations and units and shifts you're willing to work and stuff like that. It was a Microsoft form.

Yes providence is coming up. That's my dream job!
and at this point I will work anywhere at any hospital at any unit! Dying to just start working!
