  2. Is my Pay Acceptable for Southern California?

    Thanks! I applied this weekend so I will see how it goes. Figure I would apply to several agencies and see which one is the best. I just don't want to get into a really good paying agency but no per diem job opportunities... But I don't know if that ...

  11. St. Joseph's Providence Hospital?

    Ah! Was it for the same position? :/
  12. Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center

    I have asked the same question and no one answered :/ Good luck though. Just ask a lot of questions at the end to get a feel for the place. Doesn't mean you have to take the job if you feel like its not a good work environment. Hope it all works out
  13. St. Joseph's Providence Hospital?

    Well I believe it's a general medical surgical unit but I think they have a lot of hospice and palliative care patients which I am very excited for. You should come work with me if I get the job!!!
  14. St. Joseph's Providence Hospital?

    The interview went really well! The manager and I kicked it off really well. She said I should hear back next week. It was very low key compared to some interviews I have had. Hope to get the job!
  15. St. Joseph's Providence Hospital?

    I have an interview today with St. Joseph's providence hospital in burbank, ca. I have never been to this hospital and was wondering if anyone could tell me how the hospital is and if it was a good environment to work in. Thanks!
