leaving tommorrow (follow up)
OK, nobody had any specific advice but that's alright.
I have been here for two days and no calls from the hospital for an interview even though I submitted everything by last week (before I left home). I know I should have waited for the contract prior to flying but there were other circumstances that caused me to book in advance of signing anything.
I'll allow that the hurricane threat in FL may have caused a delay at the home office, but we'll see in the coming days (hate to sit around a week as the Holiday Weekend passes waiting for everyone to come back and act on this).
The walk through at CA BNE couldn't have gone smoother. Had all my ducks in a row and was out in about 45 minutes. The guy at the window was friendly and courteous and I can't imagine it could have gone any easier. Planning to apply for a NY license while I can still use the same Nursys fee (lasts 90 days I think) and I want to go there next May.
Only hitch in that whole part of this experience so far was the "Live Scan" the day before was considerably more than I expected ($81 as opposed to $25 expected). Extra fees for the DOJ and FBI were in addition to the scanners $25 fee.
But you gotta roll with it, so I've been scouting per diems at the local hospitals other than the one I'm waiting to call me for an interview and will continue tommorrow; only been here two days and have a license for the first time (in CA) today so we'll see how fast this happens and keep anyone here whose interested informed.
