Vanderbilt Summer 2020 Nurse Residency

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.

Hi everyone. I applied for the Fall cohort and had an interview with the Burn Unit. I got waitlisted. Did anyone in this cohort get waitlisted and then hired? How was your experience and how long did it take to hear about waitlist outcomes? Also what was your original unit and where were you placed finally?

Hi! So I know of at least three people (myself included) who was waitlisted for this Summer and then were offered to choose from Adult Acute Medical, Adult Acute Surgical, or Adult Cardiac Stepdown tracks! It was probably a month after I was waitlisted when I got this offer. I was waitlisted for Obstetrics and now I’m on a general medicine unit!

Hey guys, I’m applying for this fall. Can anyone on Peds tell me how it is? Also, how can you interview for your other tracks? Do you have to be denied the first one first?
