Last week I extended here in Fairbanks again, because I haven't been able to find another position here in Alaska...the last recruiter I was working with had wasted time by putting me in for a position I wasn't qualified for. The position was a Ped/onc position (I've wanted to do this!)that requires a PALS certification...which I don't have. I do have the adult version, ACLS, but that doesn't help me one iota.
She swears up and down the position was only listed as an oncology position that said nothing about Peds...my thing, if PALS was a requirement, 'HELLO!, You aren't reading the whole listing!!!!' To top the whole thing off, the recruiter said, "Call the people you interviewed with (isn't she supposed to be the one doing that?) back and let them know you will take the position if they are willing to take you before you get your PALS or let you work while taking the class. We (agency) can send you to the next nearest city for a PALS class". Some how, I don't think she got it when I said I wasn't willing, nor had the available time, to go to Anchorage, 350 miles away, for a two day class. By the time I'd gotten done with her on this & contacted another recruiter, it was too late to get something in Anchorage or anywhere for than matter.
Any who, this morning, I got up to check my email. There was an email from another recruiter I've been working with. Another position had opened up in Alaksa, Ketchican to be exact.
I'm ready to shoot myself!!! Ketchican is one of the places I'd love to go to!!!
Here is some pictures I've found online so you can see why I'd like to go.
