1. Are there any New Grad Openings, and when does the RN Residency Program start?
   On October 2, 2009 we posted our New Grad RN Residency positions for our February/March 2010 program. As a result of the significant applicant response, the application period has been closed for this particular program.
   
   
   • JMMC Walnut Creek- Applications are being reviewed, and select candidates will be contacted by phone for interviews. As of November 4, 2009, we anticipate having 11 positions at the JMMC Walnut Creek campus; 9 in Medical/Surgical units and 2 in the Progressive Care unit.
   • JMMC Concord - The February 22, 2010 New Grad RN Residency Program at the Concord Campus has been canceled.
   
   Our next New Grad RN Residency Program is scheduled for July/August 2010, and we anticipate having positions at both the JMMC Concord and Walnut Creek campuses. We plan on posting these positions in early spring 2010. In the interim, we encourage interested applicants to set up a Job Agent for these positions via our Careers site to receive e-mail alerts when the positions become available. Thank you for your interest in our New Grad RN Residency Program!
