St. Rose Dominican New Grad RN March 2014

Keseratops · Feb 25, 2014

Congrats! I found out from hr I was accepted as well. I also asked about the situation and was told that if you are on the yes list you will get an offer but the start date is pending as of now, and I don't think they will call to make specific offers until they figure out the start date. Hr said hopefully this week they would be able to update us but it may not be this week. I too am ready to get started and will feel much better when the official offer is made. I heard if there was a delay it would probably still likely start by May.

Hoppie1, which department did you get in?

Sonsikkim, I am at the Sierra campus medsurg unit. yay!! Today I received the official letter from HR and sign paperwork next week. So relieved. I guess no delay to the start date.

CONGRATS to you!!! Which unit and campus did you get? And are you from the area? I am from San Francisco so I need to start looking for apartments soon! :yes:

No I'm still waiting for the result from HR. I applied for the delima campus. Anyway congrats to you.

What was the overall process like when applying for St. Rose's new grad program? (As far as the app, essay, and interviews). Also, how long ago did you apply? I'm looking into applying for their next available program.

@ Hoppie 1, looking forward to meeting everyone at orientation, I'll be at the Siena Campus in the IMC. I'm also coming from out of state, so it's crunch time as far as finding a place to live.

@ LVHI_RN, the process was pretty straightforward. I think they changed their format a bit over the past 2 application periods. The one before this, they had all the interviews during one day. This time they had rolling interviews. For the essay to pass through HR I think it would be wise to follow exact instructions as to what they want. Application period opened 1/1/2014, and I interviewed on 2/5. I only had a week and a half notice or so before the call. Also you must pass the Dignity Math and Behavioral exam prior to being called. If you get that email, it's a great sign.

I had to call HR to find out when applications were being accepted, because it was not advertised prior on their site. Best of luck to you in the upcoming job hunt!

I got an email from a recruiter the other day giving me all the info on their upcoming new grad program. Thank you for all the info! I have one more question... the info on the essay are a little vague. What exactly do you have to write about?

hoppie1 · Mar 1, 2014

Hi LVHI_RN, for the essay part of the application, they want to know "why nursing" and " which unit you are interested in and why." Hope this helps and good luck! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi Keseratops, I can't wait to meet everyone very soon!

LVHI_RN · Mar 2, 2014

Thank you hoppie1! I appreciate that. Congrats on getting in the program. I really hope I get chosen. When do you start??
