Hi everyone! Who else has applied and does anyone know by when will they start to contact us for interviews? This would be my last chance to get into a new grad program, otherwise I would have to wait til the summer. So please feel free to post anything and everything here! Good luck to everyone!!

I got an email for a panel interview as well. They didn't give much time! Regardless, I dropped everything and am driving to LA tomorrow! Good luck to everyone!!!

PhilipG and hopeandresilience... i am excited you guys received emails even tho the HR lady told me they were putting things on hold!!! Glad things are still moving. WHat units did you apply for? Does the email tell you what to bring? Also who was the email from?

Good luck!!

@KdawsonRN Sorry that the rep told you that everything was on hold. There were no details provided other than to come at the scheduled appointment to the HR Department.

I told them I'm interested in Emergency. From old posts though, it looks like they pick where they think you'll fit best...so, we'll see!

Which questionnaire group were you guys in? I'm wondering if they're going by clump. I can't imagine the review process being easy!

@ashleyrosesf I was in the last group. I was SHOCKED when I got the email because I was expecting something, anything, at the end of the month at the earliest.

Congrats to people getting interviews! So I called just now, the HR Rep told me they are still calling people. He said JCAHO is going to be there and that they're interviewing some people this week. However, if you haven't heard anything it doesn't mean anything... In other words no news is good news! Hopefully things get moving after JCAHO leaves.

thanks for all the comments and replies!! Keeping my fingers crossed! PhilipG and hopeandresiliance please let everyone know who the panel interview goes!

Specializes in Medical Surgical, PHN.

Good luck on your interviews~! :) and please keep us updated on how it goes.

If you can let us know how many people are in the panel, how long the interview is, how many positions are available, how many interviews (1st, 2nd), types of questions (scenario, typical?).

And please be careful in the area. It's in a dangerous community = East LA! Where all the gang units are at. Watch out where you park your cars, etc.

THANKS! MUCH LUCK TO YOU!!! :)

FYI for people who are on the referral list at White: My friend who is in the new grad program at White text me yesterday after talking with the head of the Versant Program and she said that no one who is on the referral list has been contacted yet. Hope that relieves some anxiety for some people!:)

Lizzyxpooh: Just to relieve some anxiety, the area around White Memorial is not a dangerous community. It is a older/lower income community and it has crime just like any other part of LA. A lot of the locals describe it as "moving up" from what it once was. Also, since the LA County Jail is not too far down the street, there always seems to be a strong police presence in the area.

I do my grocery shopping and other errands in Boyle Heights and never feel threatened and often see children playing outside or families walking together:)

I just wanted to clear that up so no one feels scared or threatened about applying to White:)

what is the referral list? if you dont mind me asking! thank you in advance =)
