  2. What have I done?!

  7. Finally Got A Job!!

    Sorry I quoted the wrong hospital. I meant to say Corona Regional Medical Center instead of Chino. I've applied at so many I get confused. But I do remember LDrnWNB from that thread (CRMC). LDrnWNB...
  8. Finally Got A Job!!

    Well congratulations to you too. How does it feel to have to decline an offer? I am so happy. I don't know what to do with myself since I no longer have to search for a job. That took so much of my...

  10. Panel Interview at UCI Medical Center

    I don't know when I will start. I was told to wait for HR to call but I guess since they're hiring a lot more people I may have to wait until the group is formed. I asked the supervisor what I...

  15. Corona Regional Medical Center

    Wow LDrnWNB. That would be perfect for you. I've always had to drive far for work so the drive doesn't really bother me. Can you let us know what the update is once you find out? Do you know how...
  16. Corona Regional Medical Center

    No problem. That's what we're here for to help each other. I live in Temecula. I'm a little less than an hour away (further south). I believe if you are contacted for employment for any of the...

    OOOitzsharon - they should be calling you soon. They called me the day before they wanted me to come in for an interview. Have yo taken the assessment test yet? They may be making calls up to the...
  18. Corona Regional Medical Center

    Did your status always say "prospect" or did it change from "applied" to "prospect" after your interview? I am desperate and trying to read into any clues to let me know if I have a chance or

  24. Christina I think it was just ok. Not the worst and not the best. I don't care too much for interviews. I get extremely nervous. Too bad I couldn't have a glass of wine before my interview.*wine...
