UPDATE on Vent....and thanks all


You know what they say, when it rains it pours...only this time its a good thing

Well, today I set up for an interview for Ft. Knox's Warrior Transtion Unit for next friday. This morning I get a phone call for an interview at St. Josephs in Lexington, set for next Monday. This afternoon I got a phone call for a NICU position at Norton Surburban Hospital

I'm not complaining, but what I'd like to know is...Where were all these interviews last month?

Thanks all for the encouragement, esp BBFRN for the resume help

I'll keep ya'll updated

Thanks I think the interview went well, and I came prepared with questions that ended up being addressed during our discussion. I almost didn't get to meet the nurse manager since she was called to a meeting downtown, but I did ended up meeting her when the interview went a little long winded LOL. I got to our the unit and really want to work there and said so. I should hear something by the end of next week as she has a couple of other interviewees. One thing going for me is I'm willing to work 3p-11p or 11p-7a whichever and I told the manager as much.

Now to prepare for my interview monday afternoon at St. Joeseph's in Lexington. Haven't a clue to exactly which unit this will be for.

Did I mention I love this site.

Well I got a phone call this afternoon from the Nurse recruiter for NICU, the manager wanted her to call me. Unfortunately I was in Lexington at a HR interview for a hospital there and missed the call. I returned the phone call and left two messages. I should hear back tomorrow. I do hope its a job offer .

I really do think it did, because its the one I sent with my online application. Every other application I sent in I wouldn't even get an interview let alone a phone call back in what amounts to the next day after an interview. The interview was Friday, I got called again by the Nurse Recruiter today. I really wish I had been able to field that phone call, because now I'm really wondering why the manager wanted her to call me back....good/bad???? Hopefully good.

I swear BBFRN should hold a class on resume writing LOL
