Hospital Tests?

[spirit11]

Hi GA nurses

I have a question, I was told by a friend of mine that every hospital in Ga requires that the applicants pass some sort of test. She said it is like nursing school again!!!

Not that I can not pass a test, just that I am already nervous about relocating..last thing I need is another test!!!!

Most of the available jobs appear to be nights and the pay scale is difficult to understand. My friend said that I should be getting about 25.00$/h...I have 10years under my belt. Is this so???

Can I get some advise about Dekalb / Hillindale hospital.

Thanks for any input..

What would you like to know about Hillandale Dekalb Medical? I do know that most hospitals give a test. You can go onto their website get a number for them and call human resources.

I am looking for a good hospital with a friendly work environment. Just want to know if Hillandale is such a hospital?

Thanks Siri for your post.

Northside and St. Joseph's have great reputations. Hillandale is a fairly new site. Do not know of anyone working in the main hospital, Just in their professional buildings.
