Re: Another day, Another Job Interview

Here's a job ad which leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination:

"Plans and conducts work requiring judgement in the independent evaluation, selection, and substantial adaptation and modification of standard techniques, procedures and criteria. Independently prepares criteria, computation analyses, specifications, cost estimates, and technical reports in the specific area of technical expertise."

Oh, what a load of complete cobblers.
Its as if they just pulled a load of buzz words out of a hat and randomly threw them into a sentence.

Wonder if the boss actually talks like that???

:D

The answer was given to someone who obviously isn't pretending to be an RN. My answer was aimed at getting qualified to nurse not be an RN. I'm not nor have every claimed to be an expert, my wife the nursing instructor is the source of the iformation.

It irritates me when someone incorrectly claims that you can become a nurse after a 12 week training course. You become unlicensed assistive personnel, not a "nurse". It makes me "snippy". Apologies.
