Hey all,Did anyone apply for this position? I think they only had it up for a little bit and now you cannot even access job description. My status says "under consideration" but have not heard from them yet.
Asystole RN, BSN, RN 2,313 Posts Specializes in Vascular Access, Infusion Therapy. Oct 26, 2012 It will take some time to "consider" all 23,000 applicants. Take a number, grab a drink, and get comfortable.

alovelyRN 2 Posts Nov 3, 2012 I hope you got the job! I was so worried I wouldn't get into any of the new grad programs in Tucson but was called in last week for an interview. I was brought in for a second interview and then offered the position soon after! I'm meeting with the HR department next week to sign everything and make it official!!!
iridium54 132 Posts Nov 3, 2012 Aww, congratulations, alovelyRN! No, I never got a call. I imagine that is because I do not have an AZ license and I live in New Jersey, but I am interested in relocating out there. I'm very interested in migrant health. Oh well. I should probably get a compact state license and then that would help me. I have to say I am a little disappointed (I would have flown out to interview and applied for a license asap!) but oh well. CONGRATS!

runner25 15 Posts Nov 4, 2012 Thank you so much; I work there as a tech and was wondering! Good luck at work! If you have any questions, PM me! :)
azbsnstudent 1 Post Nov 6, 2012 After completing the new grad orientation, do you get a raise? After a year? How long does it stay at $24.50? Also, is that good for Arizona new grad pay? I'm just wondering about how fast I can pay off school loans!

Also, is that good for Arizona new grad pay? I'm just wondering about how fast I can pay off school loans!that's about average. banner starts new grads out around 25, scottsdale is around 26. not sure about the dignity system. mayo starts new grads out at a whopping 20.xx (ouch). if you want to make more, work nights and pick up extra shifts!
runner25 15 Posts Nov 6, 2012 From my understanding, there are no real raises this year. But if you go up the clinical ladder to clinical nurse II (12-18 months later?), you can get paid more. I think clinical staff nurse IIs are hired at $28-29 an hour.
