   I'm not sure how TalentPlus works so I can't really respond to that question. I know that it's used as a screening tool, but usually they put you through Talentplus first, then the recruiter...

   No, because my application status still says "In Review" and I've been working since August.. Congrats on having the TalentPlus done with. That was the weirdest phone interview I've ever

   Fingers crossed for you! I think I'll be rotating between days and nights. One of the other new grads was recently told that she'd be rotating so I assume all of us will be

   Unfortunately I can't answer this question. I was hired as a New Grad RN and all the New Grads started at the same hourly rate. I'm assuming you're an experienced nurse (but feel free to correct me...

   Not sure what they mean by "rotating" because I was told that once we were off orientation the unit director (Valerie) would determine where the openings were and would place us. She did say that we...
