Davita Acute Nurse Interview

[five10fevr]

I currently have an interview next week for an acute dialysis RN. I have never worked as a dialysis RN, but I have a few years of dialysis tech under my belt at a non-davita clinic. I currently work on a busy Med/Surg floor. What are everyone's thought going straight for acute's instead of starting in a chronic unit first? Does anyone know how acute nurses get paid? Is it hourly or is by case? I hear acute nurses are paid both ways. What is the starting rate in California?

I want to thank everyone for their input.

Have you had your interview yet? How did it go?

[five10fevr, ASN, RN]

Sorry, I didn't get notification of message. I did have my interview and it went great. I was hired and just starting out. I have hit the acute floor yet. That comes next week.

five10fevr how long did it take to hear if you had the job or not? I interviewed 1 week ago in person for an acute care position and was told I would hear by the beginning of this week. I am still waiting.

[five10fevr, ASN, RN]

I was told by the FA that they would call within 24 and they did. He said he didn't like people hang out waiting. I was also one of the last to interview. Do you have the card of the person you interviewed with? Maybe give them a call to check if the position is still open

I interviewed and also waited over a week - finally contacted the person who was handling things and found out the position had been filled internally so if I suggest calling.
