chybabe · Nov 4, 2011

I just had an interview here, but I didn't know much about the hospital. I would love to get a nurses honest perspective on the hospital, the care given the compensation etc. thank you so much!

I just had an interview there today too. What floor/dept will you be working in?

I interviewed for the medsurg/oncology. Nights What about you? Did they tell you an hourly wage? I was only told differentials.

Psych-Night shift too! They gave me a range but did not explain in details what they entail. Check your message:)

Hey,

thanks for the message that was helpful! For some reason it wont let me message you back so this is theonly way I can respond, was that number range including the differential or before? Yes, I am a new grad, actually from out of state, which is unfortunate for the hiring situation in Chicago. What about you? have you had any other interviews?? Did they tell you you got the job after the interview?

You are welcome :) Yes, I was hired right after the interview. I am also from out of state and relocated a couple of weeks ago so I don't know much. The range is before differentials and Im on the far end. Have approximately 3 years of experience. Were you hired also? What was the weekend differential they told u as I forgot to ask.I'll send you a message with my email address too.

I just had an interview there and don't worry it wasn't that bad, just dress nice and you might have tell them about yourself or in better words sell yourself because they didn't ask to many questions, good luck

Arjzz. Sorry for some reason I cannot message. I'm sure you will be fine they were very laid back and didn't really ask much. I interviewed the Friday of the 4th and just got a call yesterday with an offer. Good luck with your interview and let us know how it goes!

I work at Weiss and we get transfers from Thorek. The patients are not happy with their care and they do look pretty bad when they come to us. I hope that some fresh new nurses will give these patients the care they deserve! Good luck to you all in your careers!
