Time between interview and start date

This question is for experienced nurses, as I know new grads have advanced applications for residency programs.

How long from time of application/interview did you start a new job? Are managers flexible with a start date? The job I'm looking at did not ask for a preferred start date. I won't be moving for another 2.5 months, but I haven't seen the hospital I'm looking at post a job in the unit I want and I don't want to miss out on this opportunity.

There is no one answer to satisfy your question, it's going to vary on the unit manager and the needs of the unit. If they are understaffed and someone is willing to work right away then there's one answer. Or the manager is picky and waiting for the perfect candidate. Also consider if its a large organization then the hire and start date has to coincide with new employee orientation dates and other formal screening etc. Just apply and ask questions at the interview.
