I know many hospitals are going through a hiring freeze. My app was also sent to a hiring manager, but from what I've heard, they're mainly hiring internal due to this freeze. I hope this isn't the case but it's from what I've heard 😞

UCLA is mostly hiring internals due to the freeze?):

don't quote me on that, but it is something that I've heard unfortunately. many friends I know currently work there and have been offered interviews versus others who don't work there. I know that's a rumor with many other hospitals in the area as well. 

Interviewed with PICU today! I am an external applicant!

Only behavioral/personality questions. Just be yourself and be prepared to speak on the unit and the hospital. Best of luck! 🙂
