Mercy Hospital Chicago

[nursebetty]

I am suppose to attend an interview tomorrow in the am at Mercy Hospital in Chicago and I just realized that the program director never sent me any additional information. She just said 'be there at 0730, more info to come'. Meanwhile no more info came from her which I discovered this evening as I was attempting to retrieve the more info.
Im already skeptical, the board passing rate was in the high 80's (kind of low), there is no dinner the night before, or hotel accommodations, and now the program coordinator didnt give me any info.
So I called the main lobby of the hospital and confirmed with the attendant that it is the main lobby where the interviewes meet, but I am debating if I should even go or not.
I suppose I can send her and e-mail informing her that due to her failure to provide me with any other information, I have interpreted it as a MAJOR RED FLAG, and I should therefore not waste anyones time because I can tell already, Im gonna be frustrated to the max in a place like that!
Anybody know any more info, corroborate or dispute my observations?

then you should have decided to be poliite and CANCEL the interview a few days ago..then maybe someone who wanted the interview there would have gotten a last minute chance...now not only have you wasted your time, but also wasted an interview spot and kept someone else from being able to use that spot.

and just NOT showing up, reflects poorly on you and more imprtantly your school...you think next year they will be handing out interviews to applicants from your school when you set such a poor example?

they may not have sent you more info, but maybe you just didn't get it...was this through the mail? maybe it wasn't delivered...email? did you check your junk mail? maybe it just didn't get routed to you. when you realized you didn't get "further information" did you call or email the RC for that info?

and finally you never know if you are gonna like this program of not...go see it and afterwards then you can decide if the RC not sending you info was a fluke or reflective of the program.

I interviewed at this program. You meet near the RC office. There is a huge lounge outside her office where the candidates sit and wait.The program isn't the best but they are super nice and professional.As Rokshana said, you should be the same.
