Hello! I recently applied to The fall 2020 Valley Health Nurse Residency Program in Ridgewood, NJ. I am wondering if anyone else has applied/ has any Information on the interview/hiring process. Thank you!

Amazing! Thank you so much! And is it a different application since my school is not in NJ? Or are there any extra steps? I know my school has to send my name to the board of nursing in order for me to get my ATT. Do I have to request that they send it to the NJ Board or is it like they send it to Pearson and it doesn't matter which state you apply for? Sorry for all the questions! The legalities confuse me and I can't seem to find a direct answer anywhere of what I need to do!

 

Ah although it was just a few months ago, I've already forgotten how the whole process went ? You for sure have to tell your school to send your info to the NJ BON instead of the NY BON. After that, the process gets a little foggy for me. I think you wait for the ATT from the NJ BON after they received your stuff from your school, then you register with Pearson for the test. And somewhere in between you have to get fingerprinted. Definitely clear it up with an advisor at your school. But you for sure want to let your school know that you want a NJ license instead of a NY license. Sorry I couldn't be of more help there LOL

Hey there, my interview process was a little different than usual due to Covid, although I'm not sure they're still following this same format. All I was required to do was send in a video of myself answering a few questions and then it was followed up with a phone interview with the department manager. I thought the whole process/experience was great. Valley always kept me up to date and HR was always around to answer any questions I may have had. The whole onboarding process was very smooth and at no point did I think they were disorganized despite covid chaos. As for the actual residency, I'm loving it. I feel very supported and they're easing me in while challenging me at the same time. The staff is great, everyone is super nice. Many people have gone out of their way to help me multiple times, and many times without me even asking. They just see that I needed help and offered it. I'm really thankful for the opportunity and think it's a great program. 

Hi again! I hear back today that I got an interview for med/surg! I know it's a bit different than how your interview process went but mine will be a video interview with one of the managers. Do you recall what kind of questions they asked? I'm just thinking if I can prepare somehow...

Could you also speak to your schedule and how the residency itself works between actually working on the floor and other responsibilities? Thank you so much!!

I also have an interview for the residency program. If anyone can provide insight on the interviewing process and how the residency program is going so far, that will be great!

Thank you.
