hi,,well as we all know and now i do also it is hard to get a job with no past experience.

Ive tried evrywhere,,hospitals,LTC,Dialysis Centers,Clinics.

Ive had past interview and with no luck but i recently had an interview with centro med clinic in san antonio,tx

it was a pretty straight forward interview..I gave my resume she asked me to tell her about myself and she began asking me to say yes or no to answers such as have i checked BS, BP, given infants shots, etc. etc.

and asked me when was i available and what was the lowest amount of money i would take and she also wanted a copy of my SS card, LVN license, HS Diploma,CPR card, and DL. She began talking to me of the duties i would be doing but she would say, "This is what ull do" and so on and so forth and gave me a tour and where i would be located within the facility. Also introduced me to some workers.

She then said i just need to check your references and will give you a call right after. That was last thursday. I talked to her today being that i have not heard back.

She said she had been real busy and had not had time to check my references but as soon as she does she will call me right away and then stated "Dont worry I have not forgotten about you"

so im hoping this means she wants to hire me what do you guys think??? our

The hours are great! Benefits too....

Hope to hear back soon...

i wish you the best luck in landing the job! i read somewhere that employers make the hire or not decision within the first minute of the interview. if the employer toured you around, asked what you have done, told you what you would be doing and asked for all of that personal information then they must have seen something in you. because of that i would look on the bright side!

in my adn program we are required to do a 120 hour practicum at one facility. i did my practicum there and actually applied for a rn job there while i was still doing my practicum as a student nurse. i didn't have a normal interview because the nurse manager knew me from working on the unit as a student. i got hired on the spot and have been there for the past four months.

if you do not land this job, what about applying where you did your practicum? surely, if you had a good experience there the unit manager would remember you and offer an interview. good luck!
