by essaboz

Hi I am a new RN and I just got my license here in las vegas nevada. I am applying for different hospitals and I am wondering how many weeks do I have to wait to get interviews?

Hi there - I'm actually in Las Vegas right now at a conference! When I lived here, I worked at Sunrise Hosp - looked like Desert Springs has expanded too.

I would say, submit your resume and then call the nurse recruiter in one week to see where you stand.

Good luck.

I don't know about time to wait in Las Vegas but here where I work it is about 2 weeks as they check references prior to an interview.
