They're probably still looking through applications! 🥺 When did you submit yours?
Update: Oops! I thought the first reply didn't post )-: Ignore this one!

Hi guys! Any updates? 🥺
Some people have had their applications moved to hiring managers. In terms of phone calls to interview, we probably won't hear back until mid/end April and throughout May. This is just an estimate based on last years applications
They have a lot of applications to go through, you have to patient with it. It's good to look into other jobs and programs to have multiple options in case something doesn't work out. That's what I'm doing because you aren't guaranteed a position from a specific company or if you'll like what you're being offered

is anyone else working in the meantime and if you are, what type of position? 6 months is a wait and I wanted to work while waiting!

I am! I've been balancing working as a nurse extern for about 2 years while still in school, so I'll probably be continuing that job until I start a nurse residency program 😭

Urgent cares, adult daycare centers, etc. seem like good temp jobs to do! I'm looking into those at the moment since many new grad programs don't start until September.

OK cool, thank you! Just wanted to make sure bc I know most residences say less than 6 months of acute care or hospital experience 😭
Currently work as a caregiver. However, I'm looking at small community hospitals to work at while I wait. I got offered to work ICU as a new grad, thinking of taking it since I wouldn't start until April which puts me right under the 6 month mark. I want to get some experience under my belt, so I can be somewhat confident

Try looking for some nurse extern jobs! It's like doing clinicals, but you're getting paid for it XD

Anyone know when the app closes? I called and was told 3/11 at 5pm but it still seems to be open! I've already submitted but was just wondering
