I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at VITAS Healthcare (Vienna, VA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Phone interview with Director of Nursing. 1:1 interview with DON 1st interview, very pleasant. Seemed interested and positive. 2nd interview with General Manager 1:1, very unprofessional. Just dug for dirt on current employer, not friendly at all. Was interviewing for 2 very different positions even though clearly stated that I was interested in one specific position.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at VITAS Healthcare (Orlando, FL)
Interview
Online application - time consuming, interview process is straight forward and quick. Good place to work for the elderly, pay is below average for RN with experience. Health Benefits- are lacking it is basically a catastrophic plan $5,000 deductible. Staff are very dedicated, paper work is a handful, new pharmacy is not working out for patients...

I initially applied online then I received an email informing me of an upcoming job fair day. I attended the job fair. There were approximately 30 or so applicants. We were given a brief application form to fill out. There were several interviewers who called in the applicants. I was close to the last of the applicants. The session was brief, to the point questions. I was offered the position at this interview and I accepted.
