Thank you! ? No not at all, the first one I had only lasted about 20mins or so.. they were kind of dry tbh. The second one I had was about 30-40mins? It was alot better and the interviewer was very welcoming. They asked pretty much the same behavioral questions (prob like 6-7 questions); my mouth was so dry afterwards haha

Oh wow sorry about that! I'm sure you'll get an acceptance soon ?? Im looking for critical care positions, so far I've applied to UTSW, Methodist, Baylor and today I applied for Parkland, the only thing with parkland is all their residencies have either an 18 month or 3 year contract with pay starting at $30.60 sooo yeah IDK how I feel about that ??

I've pretty much applied to all the DFW hospital systems except Parkland. Their contract length turned me off ?

I will say acute med folks were very nice and easy to talk to.. if I can remember correctly there are 10 different units for med surg and they tend to over hire... the recruiter mentioned the hiring managers are working on opening actual positions right now but did extend an "unofficial offer" until they have all the details. Good luck on your interview!
