  18. Help with end date on resume

    amoLucia replied to NurseKay13's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I would use the April 5th date. It's the one that you'll officially be 'off payroll'. Theoretically, you could still be eligible to work up until that date. And just FYI, I never put down...
