Calling previous NM for interview - want old job back - advice?

I left my previous job for a valuable teaching experience but it didn't work out - I didn't have the background and they wanted me to pursue more teacher education. I'll be returning to school in the spring to finish my MSN in Nursing Education and I'm still contemplating a teaching certificate for secondary education, but my heart is in the clinical field still. I realized I was missing a lot and I miss patient care.

I miss the clinical environment desperately and I was great at my old job. I applied online for the exact job that I had before.

Is it appropriate to call my old NM and tell her to keep and eye out for my resume from HR? What is the appropriate etiquette for this?

I did leave on good terms - good attendance and performance reviews but I know she's probably still bummed that I left in the first place.

    I don't think you have anything to lose. Call her and be honest. See what happens. If you don't, you'll always wonder what could have happened. Plus, it will cost them a lot less to train you than a new person--they already know you can do the job. You'll just have to convince her of your commitment.

    If you left on good terms, there is no harm in contacting her. She may be wishing you would!
