   I wouldn't feel discouraged! Maybe "M" has a different approach to the hiring process. All the friends I recommended happened to interview with "J" and 2/3 got a job with Banner. The other one got a job quickly after and is loving where she is right ...

    That's great! I really hope you get it! My interview was Aug. 15th and I started today so I had about 3.5 weeks to relax. The interview is behavior based questions and was pretty pleasant as far as interviews go. She hired me on the spot which was ex...

    Hey all, I am looking for compression socks for long legs and wide calves! Where on the calf should the compression sock fit for best results? Mine at the moment fit about three inches below the knee even though they're supposed to be "knee-high". I'...
