you could list the job and ask them not to use this place as a reference, and explain why on your interview. maybe some of the nurses who work there, and could attest to your capabilities, and work ethic, and performance...even though not supervisory in capacity, could offer a letter of recommendation. i would just be honest see how it goes. best of luck !

ok so i am an experienced RN and i had a interview at one of the top hospitals in the country. met with HR, manager. and staff. stayed on the unit for some time talking to staff and shadowing a nurse. nurse manager called my current supervisor to get a reference last wk. she says she gave me a good one. now i'm waiting....waiting for what? maybe she is still interviewing? should i follow-up with the nurse manager personally by calling and inquiring, its been 2 weeks almost. HR told me to follow-up with her if i didn't hear anything back directly within 10 business days, but that i should hear back directly from the nurse manager. i hate waiting. it has been 8 days now. just wanted to see my fellow nurses opinions are or other nurse managers out there....what you think is the appropiate and professional thing to do. thanks everyone
