  3. i think if you have a bachelors in another degree in addition to the ADN it's ok.
  4. Hey guys, I just received my packet from HR at CHLA. Does it mean anything significant if you received the packet or do they send that out to all applicants?

  9. Quote from newgrad12
    did you guys put your cover letter in the packet??
    No. I felt that my Letter of Intent was exactly like a cover letter. I let them know about myself and why I want to work in their hospital/unit. I didn't want to be repeating myself too much and give them extra unnecessary paperwork.

    If you feel the need to include a cover letter though, then do so. I just felt I got my point across in my Letter of Intent.
  10. yeah. I see what you are saying. I just felt that they know a cover letter is "the same" as a letter of intent but why would they ask for both?? but one of my mentors told me different. she said the cover letter is just talking about what is included in the packet or the enclosures. kinda like an introduction. letter of intent is when you put stuff like why you want to work there or what not. I put both in there just to make sure. but hey who really knows what these people want!
