Is it a good organization to work for? I understand it's a Christian company - is that very pervasive, or would someone who is a non-Christian still feel comfortable?
I have a phone interview next week with their HR for a regional float pool position. Just wanted to get some opinions from people who are familiar with the organization and the various hospitals.

I volunteered at a Centura hospital for just under a year, and loved it although I am not religious. In fact, I started volunteering there because I had been so impressed with the staff when I was a patient there a couple of years ago. I cannot speak for all Centura hospitals but this one is definitely.. different (in a very good way). Something about the staff attitude stands out from any other hospital I experienced. I have heard similar feedback about Centura hospitals from others. Regarding the religious affiliation, I have never been asked about my religion and although Centura is open about its religious foundation, religion was never a topic on the floors.
Hope that helps.

I have only done clinicals at Centura despite trying my best to get hired there (as a new grad though.) We are not religious at all and I still felt comfortable there and not put off in the least. Good luck!
Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it! I believe I have a tentative job offer, pending an in-person interview. I'm so excited - they seem like a great organization!
Congratulations, I'm sure you'll enjoy working there.
