Can you see your status on the website, or do they just email applicants if their application is being reviewed?

I believe they do both. Email and update the status

The confirmation email they sent right after app was submitted has instructions on how to log into your profile and see your status.

Yikes im internal too and vested. It's so stressful, there should be a more direct route from CNA to RN if you've already worked for a long time but we have no guarantees 

 

 

Hi, I'm also an internal applicant. I keep hearing mixed things about whether it matters or not. My application still says "submitted".

Hey everyone! I applied to only OR wishing everyone good luck 🙂 Has anyone else's status changed from submitted to in review? 

I applied only to OR too! Which units did you apply to? I chose the main OR and the medical procedures OR

Are you external?

Same! 😊

Do they review applications all together or is it based on the units applied to? Would everyone who is moving forward see that their application is "under review" now or it is unit based?

They didn't  really offer that much detail on the process. They review each application and then pass on to individual units and from there the unit decides who they would like to interview. Your application may get sent to several units and there may be more than one round of interviews until each unit fills all their openings. 
 

I applied to NICU and OR and status says in review. Anyone else?

Hi! I applied to NICU and PICU and also received an email yesterday that my application has been sent to the hiring manager for further consideration! My status says In Review

Are you an internal or external app? I also applied to NICU and PICU. 🙏
