I stayed their for sometime and I did an EXCELLENT job because I felt I had something to prove and because I was just so grateful that they hired me! Now I am working as a Healthcare Administrator for another company..... congrats! I think the other posters are jealous....

Yes I am ! Infact, we are planning to move to the DC, MD, PA area when I graduate... do you have any leads?

Hi, I am starting CRNA school in a few months and I am wondering if there are any medical facilities or hospitals willing to provide tuition assistance will I am in school in exchange for a committment to work upon graduation. Does anyone have any information that they have come across? I am already in more than enough student debt and I really need a break! Thanks.

Please send me one TOO!!! I am new to the position, and have minimum experience! RN, BSN, CCRN, MPA

It was not bad. It last about 10-15 minutes. They asked about the difference between Anesthesiologist and CRNA. They ask questions specific to your unit. Make sure you know what receptors are stimulated but what vasopressor ex: levophed is stimulated by alpha and beta adrenergic receptors. kNow what each do... alpha increases hear rate; beta increases myocardial contractility. kNow your strengths and weakness... they may ask what your hobbies are (to let you know you will not able to do them while in school).....what else..... I think thats about it..... it was not that bad. they are really nice! you will be fine.

does anyone know how the interview process is?
