Nurses Residency

Published

Hi, 

I am planning to apply to the UC Davis nurse residency program this coming November. Just getting prepared for the application period and did not see a forum for this coming period. 

If you have any helpful hints or questions, let's answer them here!! Application open from November 1st - November 8th. Start dates March 14th - May 9th.

No I haven't since my interview. I reached out to HR today because I also haven't received any reference check request from them, even though they said they would send it out. Did you get a SkillSurvey request from them? 

Did HR say anything about how long the waiting period should be? And yes, I received the SkillSurvey request the same day as the interview. Check your spam folder because mine went to spam.

They didn't ? But they said that the recruiter in charge or the hiring dept will reach out to us when they have made a decision. I assume offers will be made by the end of this month since externships start in Jan.  

Also I found out that different depts will receive the same SkillSurvey report so your recommenders don't have to fill out different surveys for each requesting dept. Thought that was helpful to know for anyone who interviewed for diff depts!

Isn't the externship program a completely separate thing? The New grad program doesn't start until March.

So from what I was told, only the residents they choose will also be offered an externship opportunity before March. So if you told them you can start in March, then your externship would start in Jan....meaning they would have to let you know by this month. Hope that makes sense!

Oh, I wasn't told anything about the externship at all. They just said that one cohort would start in March and one would start in May... they didn't say anything about doing an externship beforehand.

Yeah this is something new that UCD is rolling out for the first time! Oncology and Womens Health told me about it during my interviews with them last week. The depts might mention it when they reach out to you with their decision!

Was that a different application or did you specify? Also, did anyone hear from any ICU units yet?

I think it was a different application called, "New Grad Residency Program & OR Training Program"

Did anyone else that interviewed for Float receive a skills/reference survey?
