Question: are these paid positions or is it just for more experience?

Hi. How are you? Hope you are doing very very well. I am trying to apply for this upcoming new grad RN in SHC (Dec. 3-17, 2012). I understand you got in last year and I am hoping to get some guidance. If you don't mind. I did my preceptorship there on the oncology floor so I'm pretty hopeful that will help. So as for the application, do you think I should put a cover letter? It says on the browser for uploading files only resume is needed. Also, any idea on the online assessment? Any input will greatfully help!!! Thank you so very very much. I bet you are loving every minute of your oncology floor.

So I just applied yesturday and there is no room to put a cover letter. When you upload the documents there's only upload buttons that go like this: Reccomendation #1, #2, #3, Resume, and then Transcript. That's it! Good luck!

Thanks!! Any tips on the online assessment?

[coughdrop.2.go, BSN, RN]

I'm not sure if there's any tips to give. Just be honest. It's one of those assessments where you say Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree and rate blah, blah, blah from 1 to 10. Nothing too difficult. Just a bit time consuming so make sure you're sitting comfortable when you start!

OH yah...one of those. Thanks so much!! Good luck to you!!

Does anyone know if there is priority for those that apply earlier? I will not be able to apply (due to recommendation letters) until next week. Is there still a chance that I can be accepted into this cohort?

[cstark]

For the summer cohort I applied on the last day possible and still received an interview.

yay there is a chance of moving home..and living in a cardboard box.

Hello all.....I am looking for assistance in preparing for the next steps for the Stanford 2013 RN New Grad Program. I see many of those who posted here participated in interviews and some even received job offers. So far, I am still in the running, although I havent received any calls.

I have specific questions regarding the actual interview process, both for the panel and individual interviews. I am still too new to be able to send private messages but if anyone is still reading this thread, any help would be appreciated!
