Make your premise sound like you're really a Non-Materialist, Altruistic Individual who would work for nothing, if you could and you want to get out of a Robotic Capitalistic Money-Grubbing Institution.
I bet those Non-Profit Types love to hear those Kinds of Reasons for wanting to work in Their Institution.mombabyRN96 likes this. -
Oct 1, '12 by xoemmylouoxI would focus on why you want to work at THAT facility. I think that is more important then to generalize. Say why you want to work at that specific facility. Do some research. Have they made any big medical breakthroughs, are they a teaching hospital with a good reputation, what sets them apart from the other places in your community?mombabyRN96 likes this. -
