    I have an interview for Karmanos this week. I know that an interview isn't an automatic job offer, but I'm just curious about Karmanos for anybody working there or has worked there. How is it? What's your day-to-day like? Patient to nurse ratio? Pay grade for a new nurse?

    Thank you

    Thank you snowstar4
    @TiffanyRN the clinical manager told me that they had a hold on hiring, now that hold's being lifted and their looking for RNs. I would apply quickly, they have a couple positions open. I interviewed for the BMT unit. Goodluck.

    Thanks I did yesterday and it was for that unit also, I am all too familiar with BMT my daughter is a year and a half post BMT so I did state that when applying. How did your interview go, hope it was successful.

    Good luck TiffanyRN. The manager is really nice. I got the call today I got the job so I'm super excited. It's good that you informed her of your experience with your daughter, though I am sorry to hear that. I also let her know I have had past experience with blood disorders, my mother was diagnosed with leukemia a couple years ago, but thank God she did not need a BMT. Good luck with your application I'll be thinking of you and sending good vibes. Let me know if you get the call

    Thanks and btw do you have a BSN or ASN, I think they prefer BSN but I'm remaining optimistic. How long did it take them to call you after you applies if you don't mind me asking. Thanks and CONGRATS!!!!

    congrats to you...hopefully you will be making a little more than a dmc start. Karmanos is separate from the DMC.

    True, they are just a partner but very intertwined as we share a building and do surgery on all their patients. I hape everyone makes more than the DMC start!

    Don't worry too much about postings that say they prefer a BSN...seems like most the new nurses I know have ASNs even though all the postings say BSN preferred.

    Snowstar4 do you work for DMC and if so do you guys have a hiring freeze as well, I have shadowed and interviewed for the OR at Harper and Renal at Sinai and haven't heard anything as of yet and it's been over a month. If you have any leads or the who to go to people, please let me know. TIA
