Just a little background....I'm a recent ADN grad, I was licensed in march. I have been looking for my first RN job, and it seems almost impossible in my area. All the major hospitals and many of the community hospitals all REQUIRE 1 year experience or BSN.I had an interview with HR for a med-surg position. I think it went very well! She set me up with an interview with the nurse manager on the floor the following week, which I believe also went well. The nurse manager asked me to come back the following morning to shadow for a few hours(not sure if that is a good thing?) The nurse manager was not there when I shadowed so I didn't get to speak with her.Here is where I am freaking out....I sent follow up thank you emails with both HR and n.m. but neither replied. My friend who just got a job at same hosp (same HR recruiter, different manager) said both of them replied to her thank you emails.I shadowed on Thursday morn and today is Monday.Do you think they would have called by now?Should I call HR to follow up again? And when?I don't want to sound too pushy, but I desperately need this job.
