Sigh, just checked my portal this morning for Main OR RR, got 'Reviewed, Alternate Selected.' Good luck to everyone else still waiting ?

Same  ?

I am still "in review" but I never got an interview; I did get sent a survey and all of that during the process though. I'm wondering why I never got the alternate selected notification if they didn't want to go ahead with anything. Anywho, just wanted to say that some of us are still in review and prob will be until until it officially closes. Congrats to those who got hired.

I got that too LOL. Realistically I think it means we weren't selected sadly ? 

Mine says the same. Pretty shocked. Welp. There goes all of the eggs I put in UCLA's basket ?

Don't let UCLA Health's rejection determine your self worth. There's a lot of great hospitals in Southern California.

Specializes in Surgery.

Amen to this! I also didn't get in. A big bummer but I know I'll land in the right spot and all of you guys will too.

I'm shocked for you.. but I do believe everything eventually ends up working out and I know the both of us will land at a great hospital! Definitely bummed but at least were in it together haha. Ngl tho I need to start applying for hospitals now

Same here. Do you have any idea where you might apply next? Are you going to keep pursuing psych or a diff specialty?

I live in San Diego so I'm gonna apply to a few hospitals here like Sharp and Rady's Children (they both have psych and you should apply too if you're fine with San Diego!). I'm not sure about hospitals in LA though because psych isn't a popular department for new grads... I'm gonna keep pursuing psych though because that's where all my experience aligns so I lowkey don't have a choice LOL. hbu?

Hey, for those hired when are your start dates? July or September?

just got rejected ?it is what it is but I'm bummed because I thought the interview went really well ?
