Interview
After filling out my application, an interview was scheduled with me within 2-3 weeks. The whole application/interview process was very well organized. Communication was quick and concise. You will be interviewed by managers, nurses, etc. from the area you are interviewing for. I think this is good, but if you don't get an offer from that specific track, then you are out of luck. My best advice if you really want to work at Vandy is to pick a track like acute care/med-surg where there will likely be more positions open. I also wish that the people interviewing me could have been the ones to follow up, and at least provided some feedback. I thought the interview went very well, so I would have liked to have known their reasoning if possible.

Very confusing at first. You submit online videos that they send to unit directors. Then the director will reach out and do a video chat with you. The director talked for the entire interview and asked me one question. Very strange interview process.

Pretty easy interview process. Once you complete the video interview and move onto the next step, it seems like they are trying to convince you to work there more than you are trying to convince them to hire you- there's a nursing shortage.
