Hi! I interviewed for RR Westwood Main OR Tues and they said they'll be notifying us of who they selected by the 18th earliest but most likely Thanksgiving. I know past cohorts found out in the middle of December! Good luck everyone 

Hi! I hope your interview went well!! I'm glad it is only one interview. If you're comfortable... what kind of questions did they ask you and do you have any pointers? Thank you 🙂

How did your 2nd interview go? Definitely don't feel confident in mine. 

😬OMG now I'm nervous I haven't heard back. When did you do the 2nd interview? Good luck, maybe you got the position 

hi guys! just wanted to check in if anyone has interviewed with PICU & if so how your experience was? did they give you scenario/clinical based questions?

Anyone know when they'll send out offer letters after interviews? I'm wondering how long it takes after the interview to know if we got the position or not

There is still time. I had it yesterday and don't think I did well. 😅 Good luck to you as well!

Sounds different for each unit so who knows. Did anyone interview for the PICU and ask them when we should expect to hear back and how many people they're hiring? I just had mine today and didn't get to ask

What did they ask? Was it the same staff or floor nurses?

Pretty much the same questions except with  the floor nurses.

I had asked but they said they don't deal with the logistics of that kind of stuff and that we'd hear back from the same person who emailed us about the interview. how do you feel about your interview? I don't feel good at all, I was just so nervous I don't think I made sense

Okay good to know bc I asked about the timeline after interviews and they said the same to me so I didn't want to ask more about it but was so curious if they told anyone anything more specific. Honestly unsure how I feel it definitely didn't feel great but who knows 😕 im so curious how many people they're hiring since they interviewed so many!! I'm hoping we hear back sooner than later I thought it was just me so I'm glad they said the same thing to you!

From what I heard they hire  max 2 new grads per unit

how is ER interviewers feeling! I can't tell how mine went .... sad
