I went to their Career Fair and it was a face-to-face interview, but it was a comfortable setting. They were thorough and I felt like a professional. I did wait about 15 minutes.

I applied for the ER role, but they called back asking if I wanted to work on a renal floor instead. It took me calling the hiring manager 4 times to actually schedule the interview. I had a single 1-on-1 interview where they told me there were 3 openings: full time, part time, and PRN. I said I was open to any of them. The next day, HR called to offer me the part-time position. They asked me to show my diploma to prove I graduated nursing school, which was new to me even though my RN license should confirm that.

Started with a really positive phone chat with the recruiter. Then, I met the administrator and manager in person. We talked about my experience, and they told me about the job. After that, I shadowed on the unit and chatted with some other staff members, asking them questions. I felt really good about it all and thought my experience made me a good fit. Some former coworkers who now work there even encouraged me to apply, saying I was perfect for it. Then... nothing. I was ghosted.
