UPDATE: Changes: New Log In Requirement

Hi everyone!

I created this thread for those who applied to the UCLA New Grad OR Training Program for the Winter 2026 cohort! I'm excited for this opportunity! Let's update each other on application processes, interviews, and job offers! 

Good luck to us all 💕

Hi, I applied to OR and ED at RR, my application updated to "sent to hiring manager" but I'm not sure what unit it's for. I submitted on 9/8

I did on Wednesday!! honestly question were very vague and they asked me based on my resume like specifics I could personally talk about so just be prepared don't wing it if you havnt already but they were so nice so don't be afraid.

Hey! Does anyone know if the link emailed to us to sign up for interview slots is specific to the unit we are interviewing for? For example if I have an interview with RR Main OR are the interview slots only for RR Main OR or is it for the entire OR Residency regardless of unit? My interview schedule link had 36 slots.
