Vanderbilt Summer 2020 Nurse Residency

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.

Specializes in Neonatal ICU.

The openings for interview dates may be based off of track choices, as I also had several days to choose from with NICU.

Congrats to everyone that has gotten an interview!! So did they not give you options for different days? They just gave you one single day? I applied for the NICU so I'm literally checking my email every 30 seconds and getting a little worried that I haven't heard anything yet ? Fingers crossed!! I'm hoping and praying for all of us!

I think it really just depends on the track you’re interviewing for. I got a peds hem/onc interview, and there’s only one day I can interview. Some friends have gotten interviews for other tracks and have very different numbers of days they can pick from, so I guess it all depends on the unit and how popular it is. I hope you get an interview! It’s literally just like the second day I think that they’ve been sending stuff out, so don’t panic!

Congratulations on your interview! Was that your first choice?

Yes, it was my first choice!

Does anyone know about bringing a passport photo signed by your nursing director to the interview? I thought I read about this somewhere during the application process, but I could be getting it mixed up with TriStar also. I can't seem to find an email or anything that says that for either hospital.

For those of you who got emails and replied with availability for interviews, did you receive a confirmation yet of when your interview is? And if you did how long did that take?

I got confirmation immediately. It was an auto generated email.

I just recieved an email today asking me to come in for an interview for the Adult Acute Care Surgical track! My interview is on March 2nd already, which is terrifying. Does anyone know if they wait until all interviews are over in April to make an offer or do they make one shortly after the interview?

A thread here from two years ago looks like offers started going out late March early April. Not sure if it’s still the same.
