   nyc-BSN replied to nycRN89's topic in New York

   My advice is to follow up by sending e-mail to the CNM after a week or so since the interview. Be more creative than making just a phone call to HR/unit since most of the time CNMs are busy in meetings, etc. You can accomplish more in a brief e-mail ...
