Hello,

I am trying to apply, but I don't see there is an option to submit my resume. Does anyone have any advice on how to proceed? 😞

It should be on the same page you uploaded cover letter and letter of recommendations

Yeah, I believe if you filled it out before then you don't need to do it again.

OK thank you!!

I applied to the PICU and NICU. I didn't get any additional certifications because I've heard they will offer those once hired.

I applied on on Friday and I haven't received the email with the questionnaire. Did everyone else receive it?

I didn't receive it either. Did you check your junk/spam? Did you apply to the previous cohort?

Yes check spam! Email should come from "UCLA Health Questionnaire"

[Newrn625]

I've checked everywhere and no email. Does anyone know how to contact UCLA in regards to this? Should I just try hr department?

If you applied to UCLA in the past and completed the questionnaire you won't be asked to do it again.  I got the link about 2 minutes after submitting the app.

I filled out my application and created my account with UCLA but when I go to review my application my resume is nowhere to be found. It prompted me to submit my resume at the start but then it filled out my work experience/volunteer experience in those little boxes instead of attaching my resume to my application and this doesn't show my clinical experience either. When I go to my UCLA profile my resume also doesn't exist there. I'm wondering if this is normal or if I have to fill out all the boxes and work experience area with my clinical experience. I only see upload areas for my cover letter and 2 letters of rec. Thanks!

I am having the same problem, were you ever able to resolve this issue?

Hey guys! Does anyone know if when they'll be emailing applicants for an interview? Or are they still waiting for the application date to end before they choose?
