I am a recruiter that sets up interviews and participates in job offers, etc. I think that if someone is overweight and studies (yes, just like for a test)for their interview, dresses for success, and has a positive attitude, there would be no difference in getting a job. Sure on the subconscious level, people tend to view those deemed "more attractive" more positively initially, but the preparation for the interview along with a positive attitude can diminish those statistics drastically. Bottom line, if you are well groomed, knowledgeable about your field, and come across as someone who works well with others, that is ultimately what counts. You can take that to the bank!

What I meant Brett was that there are more NP's in supply then CRNA's. Therefore the applicants, for example, for one full time position would normally be greater (more competition) than a job for a CRNA. Hope that clarifies! Barbara

Your welcome, I liked the demographics of the article. Also, as a recruiter -(yep, one of those people) it helps to keep abreast of the supply/ demand issues. Since I saw so many nurses that were considering becoming a CRNA on this board I thought it may help them make a decision. The supply for NP's are much greater than CRNA's. Barbara
