    JustinAllen replied to jessicakay's topic in Oncology

  5. Interview for oncology position: Do I disclose that I'm pregnant?

    JustinAllen replied to jessicakay's topic in Oncology

    Not to be rude but I am concerned that your school did not teach you how to use your critical thinking skills. What type of degree did you just get? Pursuing this position would be a complete waste of...
