Texas Children's Summer 2020

Published

I wanted to start this for students/first year nurses who are applying at Texas Children's for the summer 2020 cohort, the application should open end of February/March. If anyone has insight to the firm timeline, good contacts, unit specific knowledge, this would be a good place do talk about it!

Anyone else not hear back at all? I didn’t receive anything after I applied. I’m kinda frustrated and confused. I applied one of the first days it was open! Thinking I messed up the application or something?!

Keep hope. I heard there were more units than expected accepting grads which has caused a delay in the process.

How long should I keep hope before reaching out, LOL. Will they at least send out a rejection email when they’re done with interviews ?

Did you decide on going to another hospital?

Honestly not sure. I'm thinking maybe our status will change if rejected?

How do the interviews go? Are there any weird questions or is the process similar to the norm (behavioral questions, etc.)?

I felt like my interview was awkward because I work on the unit I interviewed for. but yes the questions were behavioral

name a time you had an disagreement with another student (you had to use a student based scenario)

Strengths and weakness

tell about time you had to break a commitment, what was the situation, consequences and final outcome

Tell about a time you had to use clinical course work and apply it to practice

I forgot the rest I'm sorry but it was at least 7 questions.
