I'm sorry, but I don't have any information on the positions that are left. I'd say wait for one more week, and just give up for this cohort. It's competitive. They told us on day one that they had...

I interviewed with Scott and White, but it really depends on the unit you are interviewing for. Each manager is different and will ask different questions, but I'll tell you some of the questions they...
Tomorrow is my first day, but it's just hospital orientation. But, still!! I guess I'm just a bit anxious. Can't wait to start taking care of those little babies! Good luck to all the interviews!!...
Yea! It's a hospital called Scott & White in Temple, TX (North of Austin). They have a program just for New Graduates! No experience is required. They won't hire new grads in the NICU until...
