My friend interviewed with the PICU unit almost couple of weeks ago, she mailed a thank-you card that same day, but do you think it's too pushy to send a e-mail to the person she interviewed with to ask about the next step, if there is to be one?

I did the same thing! Card in the mail and then I e-mailed them a week later saying I had sent a card in the mail and I wanted to say thank you again in case they never got it. Do you know if s/he interviewed at RR or SM? I had also e-mailed the nurse recruiter after my interview and she passed along the information that my interviewer (from SM) would be contacting us after Thanksgiving. Although she didn't specify what to expect in terms of a second interview or being hired or rejected. Hope that helps! But it wouldn't hurt to email them. Good luck everyone!

wow! only 4 hires on med surg. am i the only one who finds these cutbacks depressing? cedars is also cutting and will not have a new grad program this spring. they have decided to have it only once a year. another impossible hurdle for new nurses. it is beyond impossible to get a job in this field right now in cal. i wish i'd invested my time and money somewhere else and am tired of hearing what a bright future i have.

UCLA seems to be dragging their feet with hiring for this new grad program...its getting quite annoying.

i'm sure part of it has to do with those budgets

Don't forget that you're also in competition with all the other internals, if they feel they qualify.

Did my second interview today for MICU RR. Toured the unit and interviewed with the CNS and UD. They ask pathophys, medication questions and I got stumped on some of them. So I would recommend reviewing your patho and meds for the unit you're applying to if you have a second interview. Not feeling too confident about this interview but I did my best. Best of luck to all. Will find out results tomorrow.
