UCSF New Grad Program 2023 Questions

Nurses Career Support

Updated:   Published

Hello all, 

I am at the last semester of the ABSN program at Samuel Merritt. I'm expecting to graduate in early Jan and plan to take the NCLEX early Feb and no later than late Feb. I would like to know the timeline for applying to UCSF's nursing new grad Spring program 2023. Any past experiences with UCSF to share will be greatly appreciated. 

Did anyone interview today? What kinds of questions did they ask please if you don't mind sharing? Thank you so much.

I thought it was 2, but not 100% sure.

Just two

we are supposed to find out if we got picked or rejected no later than Friday Feb 3rd

My understanding is that we'll find out if we got selected for interviews with specific departments by Feb 3rd. In theory some people could have multiple departments request an interview and some could have none. Not sure how many interviews each department will want, the Talent/HR person I interviewed with said the Feb 3rd update would have info about the process moving forward.

Yes I sent her an individual email at: (MODERATOR EDIT OF EMAIL)

She responded really quick. Unfortunately in my case she said she can't help me at the point and my application has been rejected. My application also said "complete" but it wasn't. I recommend emailing her so that you at least get an explanation. Pretty sure all applicants got a first round interview which would explain why I did not since I forgot to include my diversity statement. I hope this helps!

Thank you so much for your response!

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to expose the questions ? But get your introduction ready, and they'll ask you two behavioral questions. (Someone posted Stanford's webinar, and practicing those really help!) My panel only had me and another candidate so we weren't too pushy on time.

Goodluck everyone on interviews! I think it's okay to share the Questions because they don't ask the same questions so it's more so just knowing what to be prepared for! If anyone is willing to at least share one question ? 

also, how long is the introduction and do the groups get the same questions asked? If anyone can answer please that would be amazing ?
