Conditional offer to firm offer, time line

Published

Hi there,

I received my conditional offer June 7th. I have done everything for both background checks, my physical is booked, and I have written up my nursing criteria. My question is how long the firm offer takes after conditional? I submitted everything last week. I can't get in for my physical until beginning of July. I am just trying to plan because they are asking me to start in August and I need to give my current employer notice. However, I do not want to do that until I have a firm offer (obviously). Just looking for insight into how it worked for other people. Also, really hoping that my write up shows enough participation to get a decent offer. Anyone have positive stories to share about that, especially those who started at a level 2 nurse.... Thank you.

Hi there,

If you are referring to the VA hospital in my area typical turn around time is 3 to 4 months from start to finish. I was given a tentative offer end of May. Still do not have my final offer. Everything is done just waiting for final approval from the Director.

Just continue working your job until you get the final offer. The VA will understand if it has to get pushed back to give proper notice.

Congrats and good luck!
