For your cover letters, did you have separate ones for each specific unit or did you just have a generic one for all of the units listed on the PCU, one cover letter for all the units listed in the Oncology, etc?

I personally had a separate cover letter for each unit I applied to!

Hello!

Has anyone heard of them hiring people with an interim license/permit?

This is one of the few new grad programs I saw there was a chance to apply before officially licensed. Application states "California RN license by start date. Depending on applicant pool, may consider interim permits.”

Graduating Jan 2025, hoping to take the NCLEX February or early March but I know it depends on school processing...
