Well I have my first nursing job on a telemetry unit. The interview wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. I got a little nervous when the director sent me to a room with two of the floor nurses for a peer interview, but that went great. They were pretty honest about the working conditions and let me know that things often get hectic, but they do help each other out and were always available for questions. I was offered days which I really didn't expect to get so I am psyched. I start as soon as HR finishes their background check and I will have orientation and then at least 6 weeks of preceptorship on the unit before I am on my own.
