So far I've applied to Emory, CHOA, Northside, and WellStar.

So I’ve seriously considered like 7 of the piedmonts. But it’s gonna be a really long commute for me and as others have said after a night shift that’s gonna be a scary thought. Emory, wellstar, choa, Piedmont, and Eastside are all the ones I applied to. I was recently told that Eastside wasn’t hiring for the units I’m interested in so I decided not to go further in the process.

Is there a way you can get days since you’re icu based?
I’m mentally preparing myself for nights because I heard the chances of getting days as a new grad in a high acuity setting are little to none. But I’d be more than happy to work nights as long as the commute isn’t crazy long. Can’t get everything I want I guess ?

That’s great that Northside followed up! I’ve been waiting for them for a while. So far piedmont is the only hospital I’ve heard from
@minniemoo22 I chose women’s services, NICU, or PEDs!! Women’s services is my top choice and yeah I applied to Northside and still haven’t heard back either
Same! I think I’m gonna call the recruiter Monday to check the status. Did you get Nneka as your recruiter?
@minniemoo22 No I have Cicely!! Mines also from piedmont Newnan not Atl but I live in Newnan so I guess that’s why I got that one!

I have Cicely as well! I haven’t heard from Northside. I’ve heard from Piedmont, Wellstar & Cartersville Medical Center.
