10 business days= 3 weeks in VA time. I would not stress too much considering you currently have a job. I have seen people called for interviews 2 months after the application cut-off and I have also seen jobs close on a Friday night and open back ...

Whatever you can negotiate with the new job!

#5) Dont let any of the lower Enlisted get away without rendering a proper salute (and greeting of the day). Tell them "I want to hear it snap!

You would think that a company that gives up front housing money for deposits (instead of sending it to the landlord or setting it up directly), sign on/completion bonuses and $1000 for screwing over errr signing up thier friends, they wouldnt need t...

The options are limited in both places. Kayenta and Chinle both have low cost Govt housing onsite but they are typically full and have a waiting list (you should be able to call around and ask about the waiting list). The alternatives in Chinle are...

I am a veteran who knows a little about the VA hiring process. Most of the time references are mailed out unless they are in a hurry or expediting the process which could mean the forms are emailed out, then mailed back. Typically the longest part of...

VetPro & Equip both will not accept employment gaps of over 30 days, meaning you just need to account for the time and provide someone that can verify what you were doing. If you were unemployed for 5months, you will list Dec 2012- Present, "Une...

Where are you currently supplying nurses and how much do you pay?

Alot of the VetPro and EQuip process depends on how bad the need is and if you are going perm or contractor. There are a few locations that will actually expedite the process and can go from interview to start in to 2-4 weeks (which is lightening fa...

Have you thought about starting out as a contractor or traveler? There is a VA in TX that is hiring 17 RNs for contract work in ICU, MedSurg and Pacu.. I have been getting hit up 2x day and they are saying expedited VetPro and Quip. There is also a ...

I would advise staying away from drive thru Pharmacies as well. Wait until you hear all of your info blasted through a loud speaker. Not only do the cars behind you hear everything but anybody at the fast food place next door gets to hear too. I al...

Ive never heard of CasePro but that sounds about right for being a miltary contract. Companies come and go but the needs remain plus if the company does lose the contract your husband can apply for a GS position and maybe get some preference. As for ...

LT, I think by now it has been established to just show up in PT's and go with the flow. Being that you are brand new with 0 time in service (TOS) there will not bbe alot of expectation out of you. As for the soldiers mentality towards you, alot o...

Im pretty sure you have to buy it but they may just give you one.. Also make sure you study for the Whiz Quiz that is often administered in the PT uniform!

I would just show up in PT's and play dumb.. I doubt they are expecting anything more than you being at the right place at the right time. You should be able to contact your first line leader and try to meet them 15min before 1st formation.. Truthfu...

Who is paying for your housing and how much does it cost?

Of course you have the right to back out of the contract. You can back out at anytime for any reason, as they can back out at anytime for any reason. If they booked you an extended stay, big deal, they can cancel it.

Id rather be pigeon-holed, than Corn-holed, which could happen if you wait 2 years to join.

Is the $84/week insurance for both you and your husband or just you? If its for both of you that's cheap! If its just you, thats about right and about the same as a private policy. Not that its anybody's business, but be careful about leasing out yo...

1)Giving 2 weeks notice is the professional thing to do. Since you are still in orientation they will most likely have you "turn in your stuff" and not waste anymore time/money. 2)There is no reason to put your feelings of chaotic, cluttered or anyt...

Patrick, I am surprised your prior VA experience didnt help you. Even if it was RN experience, the fact that you worked there means you went through the VetPro credentialing, maybe even Equip. Having those 2 things is what speeds up your hiring proc...

Im sure you are ****** but you might want to let this one go. It is a strong possibilty the hospital fired you & the staffing company is choosing to just employ you somewhere else. Ive seen people fired and reported for what you described.. I g...

Nothing in the world is free Ben.. Whats the catch, $40/HR jobs, crappy facilities, sorry housing?? How many contracts have you worked for Barton Associates?

It probably depends on how many hours you total for the month. If you are close to 160 you should be fine.

There are a bunch of Indian Health Service assignments in South Dakota and Montana. You should have no problem finding an ER job out there and the nice thing is they will take ANY state license. Ive known a couple people that have worked these assi...
