Hello everyone! Just thought I would start this thread for those applying to UCSD's new grad residency program starting this August! I know the job listing should be posted within the next week or so (:

Does anyone know how we are supposed to indicate our preference for which units? Do we mention it in our cover letter or does it ask us somewhere in the application?

Also wondering if anyone knows anything about JMC 5FG med/onc PCU or 4FGH surg/onc PCU? Is there somewhere I can find a description of the units/ patient population? I was trying to Google but nothing was coming up really. 

Last question- how long will the application be open for?
 

thank you and best of luck to everyone!

I had the same question but I emailed the recruiter and they said you don't, the references count for all positions ?

I'm not interviewing till next week but I'm pretty sure it's a panel with all the ICUs? I was sent an email with info on JMC 3F neuro ICU, Hillcrest SICU, and JMC 3GH. I hope it's not just one of them and I totally missed that important piece LOL

Anyone from l and d get an interview yet ? 

Yes any news anyone hear from L and D?

Some people I know got called to interview for the ICU; a ton of PCU calls

I know two people from my class that got a call and interviewed this week via zoom however, they had clinicals there so I guess it helped. 

From L and D ? 

Anyone else just get an email for PCU preferences? I had my interview on Monday. I hope getting this email is a good sign LOL

Congratulations! I would take that as a good sign. Was your interview in person or virtual?

And what do you mean by preferences? Like which unit is your top choice?

I had an in person interview. The email states "if you are selected..” but I'm hoping for the best! And Yes, it told me to rank my top 5 out of the 9 units.
