2010 - UCSF / Stanford RN Residency Interview?

[westmidwest]

Hey,

I applied for RN residencies at both UCSF and Stanford during the week of May 10th, 2010. I wanted to hear from anyone who has applied to either program AND has been contacted by a recruiter. Or from anyone who knows for certain (i.e., you work there) when theses decisions will be made. I am a fairly strong candidate and would like to believe I am in the running for a position--but who knows really? I will post if and when I hear anything.

Best of luck.

I just had my panel interview this past wed for SHC. has anyone heard back from any of the managers for a one on one? do you by when they said we had to hear back?? i'm so nervous, i heard they only have ten spots open

They told me during my panel on Wednesday that we would be hearing back within 10-14 days via e-mail and that they would notify us either way. They said that there's a small chance that they'd be able to let us know sooner, but they aren't promising anything :/ so we'll seeeee..10 spots is such a small number! Especially since they panel interviewed approx. 100..yikes! What units did you pick as your top preferences?!

i said cardiac intensive care..ugh i actually got a job offer in a hospital in so cal, but i'm kinda waiting on stanford to see if i move on in the process..i hope i don't miss out on my one and only opportunity ..esp in this job economy ...what about u? what unit did you put as your preference?

[mmichellef]

I said Cardiac ICU as well! But I also said Oncology..I'd love either one. Ugh, that's such a tough position to be put in! I feel like I might be in the same place as you within the next week..I had an interview at another hospital several weeks ago and I feel really good about it, so I don't know what I'll do if they offer me the position, because I want to hear from Stanford..it's such a tough gamble..I wish that all of the hospitals that you apply for would tell you their decision at one time hahaha..when do you have until you have to make a decision about the socal hospital?

[mspinksports]

I'm not sure because they gave me the unofficial hire but said HR is gonna give the official hire prob on tuesday...i'm hoping they let me give them a week to decide whether or not i take it..hopefully i hear from stanford by then the yes or the no

[mmichellef]

Yeah, I hope so too! My friends that are already employed said that they have been given a week to decide...well good luck! Hopefully we will hear from them soon..let me know what ends up happening! :)

[mspinksports]

oh man a week is not enough..haha..yeah thanks i'll let you know..and you too lemme know when you hear from stanford.

Has anyone received news from LPCH or Stanford?

I was selected for a one on one interview with Lucile Packard. I interviewed with a unit manager last week on the 22nd. I won't hear back till the beginning of August if I got the position or not for that particular unit.

I also have another interview with LPCH tomorrow for a different unit. Wish me luck!

[meemer]

Good luck!!! That's so wonderful that 2 units are interested in you!

[BayareaRNBSN]
