Vanderbilt Nurse Residency Summer 2018

[vlg, BSN, RN]

Hi everyone! My name is Tori. I created this page for those interested in the summer 2018 nurse residency program at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN. We can use this page as a place to share application tips, updates on the status of applications/interviews, tips for the entire application/interview process, etc. And of course, it's great to speak with others going through the same experience!

Hey Julien, that's great! How was the application process? Did your references need to write letters or just submit contact info?

Do you submit your resume and cover letter in the initial application or when you receive the second packet?

Yes, you do. The only thing I have left to do is submit my letter of intent and my application will be complete.
