Must Haves :
- Transplant experience (liver, kidney, pancreas, abdominal)
- Must have an updated resume - job history dates and units worked in must be accurate
- Ideally, seeking candidates that have proven track records and consistent work history. Not job hopping. If so, just need explanation as to why they left (relocation, promotion/growth, etc).
- Must have a good attitude and are PREPARED for the phone interview with the recruiter. Slow responses and disinterest are declined - our organization relies heavily on teamwork and we are successful with this because of the genuine care we have for our jobs!
- Must be honest about unit, shift, and location they are interested in working - if someone is unhappy with nights but they take it because "it's a job" this shows up in their work and would also potentially affect tenure.
