Quick question for nurses:

Have you ever accepted a job based on what they told you in the interview... only to discover the reality was completely different?

📍 "Flexible scheduling" = schedule posted 2 days in advance

📍 "Competitive pay" = $8/hour below market rate

📍 "Team player environment" = guilt trips about saying no to extra shifts

This week's Nursing Matters podcast gives you the exact questions to ask to uncover the TRUTH about:

→ Actual salary ranges (and how to ask without seeming difficult) → Real schedule flexibility (approval rates, posting timelines, mandatory OT)

→ Workload reality (ratios, support staff, short-staffing frequency)

We're also covering major nursing news: a fall prevention toolkit achieving 53% reduction, AACN's workplace transformation initiative, and why nursing demand just hit a record high.

In Recruiter's Truth: The STAR method breakdown that keeps your answers under 90 seconds and makes you memorable.

This is the career advice conversation I wish I'd had 20 years ago.
