   Arg928, thanks for the quick reply and useful info! Glad you like it because it sounded like there was a high turn-over rate and it made me a little cautious. I have had 3 years of hands on experience (med/surg and nursing home) but have been out of ...

14. letter of recommendation

    oldfaithful replied to choco2me's topic in Career Support

    well, in my opinion, it's really nothing to worry too much about. LORs are always good to keep available, but if you don't have them right up front, I'm sure the hospital personelle will just ask you to submit them. No big deal really. I don't even k...
