Okay I see thanks! Do they make u sign a contract stating you have to stay the full 2 years?

I'm not too positive on if they make you sign a contract that the 2 years are mandatory, but I'm going to assume that's something HR incorporates into their documents. But I don't know for certain. If you don't finish the 2 years, it's more than likely the nurse educator won't let you use them as a reference for future jobs at least. 

For anyone who received the email on June 30th and submitted your documents, have you received an email back yet? There's a time/date limit & I have no idea on how to tell if they even got my email on their end...

Did you apply via the county site for relief nurse position and do the assessment.? I applied and took the assessment in early June and had heard they were going to have a job fair, but never heard back again.

Yes, I actually applied back in April. But they emailed me last week regarding scheduling an interview.
