Starting a thread for the New Grad program starting March 2024!
Note from allnurses Staff
As this is one of our most popular new grad residencies on this forum, with hundreds of threads over the years, the allnurses support team wanted to share some additional information on the residency program.
Good luck to all!
Stanford New Nurse Residency Program
The Stanford RN Residency Program, which started in 2006, is one of the most sought-after residencies in the country. The Winter 40 Cohort has a start date of March 18th, 2024.
The pay is competitive at $81.69/hour plus shift differentials:
10% evenings
18% nights and
5% weekends
Interviews
Interview invites are scheduled to be sent out at the beginning of January, with the interviews taking place from January 29th- February 9th, 2024. There are two separate interviews:
Panel level: an approximately hour-long virtual group interview with 4-5 candidates; each applicant will have an opportunity to answer all the same questions
Unit Level: a 30-60-minute interview with the hiring manager and potentially other members of the leadership team; this interview could be virtual or in-person
Specialties Offered
There are four specialty areas that participate in the new grad program:
Critical Care
Inpatient Medicine Units
Inpatient Surgical Units
Inpatient Oncology
As well as some additional specialties (subject to change). Applicants are asked to rank their preferences, but you will only be interviewed for one specialty.
Any input on what to include in my intro? Should I include previous work experience, military experience and etc ?
Yes! They said to include your relevant experiences + why nursing in your intro at the beginning of the interview. I would say definitely mention your military experience too if it's a big part of who you are + your background. Good luck !!
2nd float pool interview, anyone? They said we'd know by today for a second round next week, but I was sort of expecting to know sooner based on other divisions' turnaround times...
Hi Pwong! Sorry for my late response. I was busy preparing for my 2nd round. I just finished my 2nd round. I feel that being well-prepared is the most important thing. During the interview prep, they mentioned all the qualities of a clinical nurse, such as communication, time management, cultural competency, teamwork, etc. I prepared about 14 different stories that I could use to respond to similar behavioral questions. Besides that, having a clear structure is really important. You need to cover all the components of each question, which includes 'What happened, what did you do, what was the outcome, and what did you learn from it?'"
Hi Emma,
May I ask you a few questions? My Gmail is my screen name. Thank you!
