revamp

I'm not a nurse, so I can't speak with nurse-specific experience, but I am the hiring manager for a dept within a medical school. ALWAYS err on the side of dressing up. Although it's terribly inconvenient to have to gather an outfit together that you may not already own (and may not wear again), as the commercial goes, "You never get a second chance to make a first impression". "Dressing up" shows a level of commitment and professionalism, and no justification should be used to slide by with something more casual. A professional outfit doesn't have to be expensive. My last "interview outfit" cost me maybe $60 brand new from either Burlington Coat Factory or TJ Maxx (including shoes). YOu can get away with spending less at consignment or thrift stores, as mentioned above. Good luck with your interview and let us know how it went!

Bree124-- My wife was just accepted to Marquette's direct entry program and will be starting classes this may ('09), and plans to pursue the midwifery program. I would love to chat some on your impressions so far of the program, and ask some questions. Does this forum have a chat or personal message function? Thanks! EDIT: I see I have to have 15 posts prior to being allowed to send private messages. I can be reached at revamp11 at gmail dot com if you get this and are up to sharing some info. :)
