job interview

Orca, ADN, ASN, RN · Oct 3, 2009

Far too many unanswered questions, as far as I'm concerned. The fact that they want you to provide your own equipment (and they also want to dictate the type) is a big red flag for me. It sounds like this company is trying to do things on the cheap and they expect you to fill in the gaps. The fact that they haven't discussed salary is also a big issue. Perhaps they pay so little that they want to get you interested in the job before they drop that particular bomb on you.

I would treat this job like a live grenade, unless the alternative is unemployment.

Sounds like this bunch is operating on a shoestring. Unfortunately, with the economy and jobs being the way they are, it is likely that more employers will operate like this - passing expenses on to the employee that they should be covering, being evasive about salary, etc.

Best of luck to you.
