How to effectively resign? How to get a new job?

Published

I would like to get a new job. I have heard that in nursing, you must give a one month notice, or risk 'not being rehireable', which is one of the only questions HR can answer if asked by a prospective new employer (eligible for rehire, or not eligible). Is this unique to only certain employers (the one month notice), or is it fairly standard?

As far as getting a new job, if I liked my old job, but felt harrassed by an aide, with non-responsive mgt, what should I say?? I know I shouldn't say that, but want to be truthful...I have no idea what to say.

Also, who should I use for references?

Anyone with experiences/advice with this, please respond!!

If you're wanting to leave just because of this one aide, you might reconsider. Most nursing environments have at least one person who is difficult to work with, most have many more. Maybe you could just schedule to work on shifts when that aide is not working.
