Hi, last thursday I submitted an application on several skilled and assisted living facilities . Then the day after that, I got a phone call, I got a job interview and was hired on the spot by the wellness director of an assisted living.
The director and her assistant were the ones who did the interview, They knew I am a new nurse and is currently employed as a C.N.A position in a assisted living where I do most meds and is a team lead. In short, no working background as an RN.
They took an interest on my resume because I am working in AL.
Then at the end of the resume, I asked them how many RN's working now. They said I will be the first RN if ever because they're both LPNs. Meaning, I was hired on the spot. They don't even call or asked my reference. They said the previous ones are pretty old school (considering I'm young).
I was so thrilled I snag a RN job but I'm worried I might be thrown to the wolves. Or am I being paranoid?
Do they really hire entry level RNs at assisted living?
