congratssss!! So what did they tell you?? Hows it gonna go??/ I called an agency today and sked them if they did per diem but for clinics and docs offices and they told me they did and wanted to send me to one, they didnt really care that I had no experience, which I thought was kinda starnge even if it is a just a clinic. I decided to go on an interview for a full time clinic job and get the one year experience there and then move on to the agency and do per diem work with them. I go to the interview on thursday. Anyways, please fill me in on what they told you. So you are probably gonna get oriented for a while and then what youll be per diem?? When do you start?? Let me know how it goes, you interviwed for a nursing home right??? What would your job duties be??
