I had an interview two weeks ago at a hospital that I would love to work for. I would like to know if I should contact one of the assistant nurse managers I met with to let her know I am interested. I considered not sending an email but the job posting is no longer on the hospitals site AND I just offered Full day time position at a nursing home where I work part time so I'm trying to figure out how to move forward. Here's the back story. It is sort of long so I put it into bullet points to make reading it easier. July 2015: Interview with HR as a new graduate with no experience. A few weeks later I was schedule by HR for an interview with a Nurse Manager [on unit A] When I went for the interview, the NM[ on unit A] wasn't there so I interviewed with the assistant nurse manager [on unit A]. The assistant nurse manager told me I'd hear back within a few days from HR since they were hiring quickly. Also, the assistant NM was going on vacation for two weeks literally right after my interview so I quickly and sent a thank you email. I didn't hear from HR in a few days so I called HR but the HR woman I was supposed to hear from was on vacation. I called HR in two weeks and the HR woman says she would contact the NM [from unit A] to find out her decision and get back to me by the end of the week. She emails me back telling me she still hasn't hear back from the NM. I find out through a former classmate working [on the unit A] that the NM will be leaving the hospital in a month so I email the NM directly with my resume and tell her I'm very interested in the position , even though I didn't get a chance to actually meet her directly for the second interview. I still haven't heard anything so I ask my classmate what's going on on her floor She tells me that that specific day is the NM's last days 9a lot sooner than the month ) so I quickly call the assistant NM from unit A. The assistant NM answers and tells me that today is the NM last day and they are about to have a meeting to decide what to do with the people they've interviewed and she tells me to email her my resume so she can bring to bring to the meeting. She tells me to email HR within two days and ask about their decisions. The next day I get a call from HR saying the hiring is on hold because the NM is leaving and they have a new NM but the want to give the [new NM of unit A] a chance to get used to the unit. She also says the new NM is going on vacation for two weeks. I call HR two weeks later and they say the new NM [ of unit A] wants to get used to the unit before hiring so I give it another month or so. I email the new NM of unit A introducing myself and telling her I interviewed before but the change of management happened. I check online and see that there are new postings for [ unit A] so I call HR about a week later and they scheduled me for an interview with the new NM [ of unit A]. I have to wait 2 weeks because I didn't have off from my other job and I was working on the day she had available. During that 2 weeks of waiting for the scheduled interview, the two postings for that floor are taken down. When I show up for the interview the new NM [for unit A] isn't there so I meet with the assistant NM [of unit B] . It turns out that the new NM is just the Interim NM [for unit A] but her main role is the permanent NM [for unit B ] . The Assistant NM thought I applied for the RN position on unit B but I told her the situation. The assistant NM of unit B took me to the assistant NM of [unit A's] office and I interviewed with the assistant manager [of unit B] for a day time position although I did not actually fill out an application for that unit. She also said a day position may open up mid December for her unit. The Assistant NM [ of unit A] whom I had already interviewed with over the summer was also present during the interview and she and mention that reason the positions where taken down from the website for unit A was because the day positions were taken by night shift staff and there were now a few night positions that were opening on her unit A The assistant NM of [ unit B] told me that I would hear back in a few weeks directly from HR not her so to be in contact with HR. After the interview I went online and applied for the position on unit B's just to have it on record in case I was offered that day position and sent a thank you email to the assistant manager of unit B. Monday I got an automatic email saying that another candidate was chosen for a position on the unit B but I didn't even apply to be officially until after my interview with the assistant manager on unit B.I am not sure if that means I didn't get the position I interviewed for. Also, during the interview, the other assistant manager [of unit A] seemed like she was interested in hiring me. In fact, she had my resume from when I had interviewed with her before and printed it out for assistant manager B. She also said it's a great facility and I should consider a night position on her unit if I don't get a day position on unit B. What I gathered during the interview was that the assistant managers of unit A and B communicate often so I'm not sure if I should just assume that assistant NM A will contact me if the assistant NM B is not interested in hiring me or if I was interviewing again for unit A. In fact, when assistant NM unit B asked Assistant NM A if she had any questions for me, Assistant NM unit A said , "No, we talked during the first interview" and gave a genuine smile and talked more about the hospital. I won't be sending assistant NM from unit B another email as she clearly said, HR will contact me from here on out. But, I want to let the assistant manager from unit A know that I'm interested. I was thinking of sending her an email telling her that I would like to work on her unit for one of the open night positions.

Why would call a rapid response versus a code blue? You said the lab was checked for two days,who is responsible for making sure checking the C02 lab ( was the doctor supposed to order it, was the nurses supposed to call and ask the doctor to order it ). Was anyone written up or receive a verbal warning for this or was it nobody's fault? What could have been done differently in this situation to prevent it, if anything? When you hung those bags of bolus fluids , did you have an order or is this a protocol on your unit ? FYI : I don't have RN experience yet so I'm not sure what to expect in this type of situation.

Congrats!! I'll be seeing you soon. I suggest we go get drinks to celebrate!

I got some info about the NALC program in the mail and the dates are March 26, 27, 28 and April 2,3,4, 9 and 10.

I know there's a free Saturday clinic for physicals in Camden run the med students so I was going to try to go to that. Also, I found some other clinics that use a sliding scale but the they haven't returned my calls yet. I'm pretty up to date with vaccines except that Hep B,the 2ND chicken pox shot, and PPD.But omg, why the hell is it so expensive!!!! That's funny because I was actually going to try and wait until the insurance started to get everything done.

I was verified the 14th of January, about two weeks after requesting my transcripts, and they asked for a copy of my BLS the 24th of January. Good luck =)

I received my acceptance letter for Stratford yesterday !! I'm happy =) Now, I am trying to figure out where to get a physical examination and up to date vaccinations for a reasonable price since I no longer have health insurance. Any suggestions?? I live in Camden county, by the way?

Thanks! I'm trying to keep myself as busy as possible by picking up extra shifts at work, mediation, and hobbies. Hopefully we are both lucky and get in, haha. But seriously, it's nice to know that I'm not the only one going crazy =)

I called and I was told, "..Um, they're still making a decision about your application. Give it a few weeks ?" She was very pleasant, as always, but that "pause and um" has me a little worried or maybe I am just reading too much into it.

Ok. I'll call now and ask for my status. That is a pretty decent amount of people they accept. I was actually being a stalker the other day and saw that Stratford's recently graduating class had 26ish people in the pinning ceremony picture and fb page. So either they had a lot of people drop out or they didn't have too many applicants lol. That kind of gives me hope lol I'm from Camden =)

I applied to Stratford too and I am sooo anxious. I've been picking up extra shifts at work to keep me from thinking about it, hah. I really want to call but I don't know what to say. What exactly did you ask when you called? Was it if they had reviewed your application? Did you speak to *******? I'm thinking about calling on Friday. But, like you said, at least a rejection letter has not come. Are you from South Jersey?

Hi I thought maybe you could help me with a few questions about UMDNJ.. I sent you an email. Hope it finds you well =)

Hi Helen88a Would you be able to PM me, I have some questions about UMDNJ( I just applied) and I think you'd be able to help me answer some questions? I don't have enough post on this specific account to message you. Thanks!
