The director did say he could see that I'd been preparing & thats what they were looking for so I felt that was a plus but I could've blew it with ABG Who knows.

See I stalled after he said it didn't work. I was so wanting to say cardiovert but I didn't want to make another mistake:((. It's usual pace or shock in CVICU. LOL. If they have a pulse in vtach it's not for long.

I am waiting like u guys, hopefully we will receive an emai tomorrow 11/30. Yes, I have my CCRN but I met applicants with excellent backgrounds with no CCRN and I think they were good candidates. We were about 24 applicants and 3 panels! I met CVICU, Neuro, MICU RNs. Many were happy after the interview and many were disappointed but no one knows exactly whom they will choose! Quite competitive!
