I'm assuming the personality test is well researched? (at least I hope) so if your personality doesn't match their unit culture maybe it actually wouldn't be a good fit for you. On the other hand, your honest answers may mean that you are a perfect fit personality-wise for your preferred unit! 

Out of curiosity, did you receive an email offering you to take the personality assessment already?

I think they said it would be sent 3/20!

I applied for the ICU position. I have a little under 6 months of paid ICU experience as an RN at a very small community hospital. Left my job, so applying for the new grad at UCLA, do you guys think that will hurt me? I hope they don't see it as a bad thing.  Any insight from anyone? Is everyone applying non UCLA graduates and without connections? Because I am, but sometimes it seems that most people get in because they went to school there or know someone. *sigh*

@HelloFriends hi! I have well under 6 months of NICU experience and applied for the NICU. If anything the experience makes you a better candidate and you're able to speak more on your passion and experiences in the unit. Good luck! I'm rooting for you!

I think as long as its under when you applied that you'll be okay (but I am not 100%). I am applying as a NON UCLA student ? fingers crossed for us.

anyone apply to ED?
