Is this what the standard is going to be? Up to 16 weeks of unpaid work to get a new grad job! I guess its like 1 extra semester of school clinical.

Where is this? What are six facilities that have this program? I think it kinda sucks but if it gets you a job.....

They pay you during the residency program.

Good to know.., it seemed as if it said hired only upon completion which I took to mean unpaid until completion.

Abrazo btw!
