I thought someone said there were only 6 slots total? Wow only 2 spots left for PICU?!  I'm getting discouraged. 

I think there were 6 at that time, but people probably signed up after seeing the email. I just checked and there is only 1 more spot remaining 😭

Aww so saddening. Have you applied before? Are you external?  I wonder how many they hire out of the 18 applicants

Congrats to everyone! Has anyone else on here signed up to a med surg interview. I'm external and have a med surg interview there were 6 slots. I guess I'm just super nervous about the interview. Anyone who has interviewed and not gotten an offer how soon after your interview did you hear? Are there multiple interview rounds? Any tips or things you wish you had said or did in the interview?

What kind of questions did they ask you? Would you mind if I emailed you?

Hello, 

Has anyone hear back from hematology/oncology or OR Santa Monica or Ronald Reagan? Wondering if most people who are hearing back are internal applicants. 

[Tae V]

hi guys! Does anyone know if they send out interview invites all at once or in waves?

Last time it went out by unit but IDK now. I'm internal and applied to adult ICU and medsurg and have not gotten an interview yet :/
