Once you're ready to jump from "just-looking" to "let's do this thing", we want you to be aware of the expectations we have of you once we start submitting you to facilities (and beyond). In turn, we also want to make sure you're totally clear on what to expect from us along the way!
Commitment. We expect that you are comfortable with the details on the Match detail page (including location, unit, facility, shift, job description, and compensation package) before applying.
Don’t click that Apply button until you’re sure the job meets your needs! We totally understand you may have some additional questions about the opportunity, but overall, you should be comfortable with the details of the Match before you apply.
Communication. We expect that you’ll be responsive throughout submittal, offer, and onboarding, and will communicate with the Trusted team respectfully.
Post-submittal, we’ve really gotta keep in touch, as we need to stay on the same page on your potential placement through this fast-moving process. We understand you may work crazy hours (we’ve been there, too), but we need you to prioritize your responses to us during important phases of the process. If your schedule makes this tough, let us know so that we can prepare for this and do our best to accommodate.
Special Requests When Applying. All time-off requests, scheduling needs, pair/group requests, and any other asks must be included at the time of applying. Changes will not be accepted after this time (barring special circumstances). Also, please ensure your available start date is accurate when you apply, as offers are made based on this date.
Since facilities are typically looking to fill needs urgently, they expect that the applications you’ve submitted are finalized. Be sure your details are accurate before you apply for a Match so that we can avoid slow-downs and frustrations with the facility.
Timeline to Accept or Decline Offers. Once an offer is made, you must formally accept (contract signed) or decline an offer within 24-48 hours of receipt, unless otherwise specified. Failure to communicate during the offer phase may result in an inability to work with Trusted in the future.
This one’s a biggie. Once offers are made, it's incredibly important to the facility that they know whether you’re taking it within a reasonable timeframe. If you are, amazing! If not, the facility needs to find a replacement, stat. Some facilities give more time than others, and your Nurse Advocate will set that expectation with you when an offer is received.
