Washington Hospital Center RN Residency February 2012

[smoothRN]

Hello everyone,

I applied to the Washington Hospital Center RN Residency February 2012 a few days ago and got an email requesting additional information. For those of you who are already in or had been through this program, here are my questions:

1). Is this a phone interview, or just a request for more information, leading to a possible interview later?

2). What kind of question/information will be discussed during the phone call?

Thank you very much for your information, any help is greatly appreciated. I am new so I am a bit nerves. Thanks!!!

PS, this is the email:

Hi all, I will be graduating from my nursing program this coming winter. I am interested in applying to the cardiac surgery stepdown unit at WHC. I am not familiar with this hospital or unit and was just wondering if anyone had any experience or could give me an idea of what the environment/climate is like for nurses on this unit or just at whc in general. Thanks so much for your help!!

Hello All,

I am a recent (December) graduate and received a request for more information identical to the one posted at the start of this thread. I replied immediately by voicemail and email and haven't heard back from the recruiter. Has anyone had a similar situation or is this most likely related to the holidays? There are a few other job offers on the table, but WHC is my first choice and I would like a chance to interview there before signing a contract.
