Nurses General Nursing

Updated:   Published

Hey everyone! Just thought I would create a page for us to chat about the upcoming application process and everything that follows! I graduate in May 2020 and am hoping to apply for the CVICU or the adult ED.

For anyone who has already applied or is planning to, who did you address your cover letter to? I always feel like if I get the name wrong I'm going to look like an idiot, but "Dear Hiring Manager" seems so impersonal!

I did not write a cover letter because the application requires a letter of intent. They are adamant about not addressing it "to whom it may concern" so I wrote Dear Nurse Residency Program.

Hey guys, I know I am way late on this haha! My name is Justene, I am from Illinois, and I accepted for the adult acute care track! I am so excited to meet everyone and move down to Nashville! If anyone has a groupchat or anything lmk, I would love to meet people before we start! Also will be in need of a roommate:)

Hey Everyone,

My name is Shannon and I am also really late on this thread haha....I just did my interview for the heart and vascular institute today and got a position offer. I'm originally from the Bay Area in CA, but just completed my RN program in Boston. I'm really excited to make the move to Nashville! I would love to connect with everyone from the program if anyone has a group message going! ?

Hi all! I'm applying for the Fall cohort. Adult ED 1st then Pedi ED (only because I couldn't choose that order in the reverse - tricky). Anybody else?

Hey CONGRATS on getting a job at Vanderbilt! I'm graduating Spring of '21 and am interested in Vanderbilt, I was wondering what helps you stand out to get an interview?

I went with a different hospital a little outside of Nashville that I was really impressed with, gave me a nice offer, and felt I'd get the best overall experience at.

Hi! I'm a new grad graduating next year, I'm moving from CA to TN. I was wondering what your offers were for the hospitals in TN? Thank you so much!

I had five offers, for new grads depending on the hospital unit, starting pay is around $23-$25/hr. Usually another $3-$3.50 for night shift, which you're basically guaranteed to be on as a new grad here.
