Labor & Delivery is a specialty you move into. Waitlists are common; med surg keeps you moving.
Worth asking
The posting doesn’t answer these. Good ones to ask a recruiter or in the interview.
- Can you walk me through base pay range, differentials, and sign-on bonus repayment terms?
- What should I expect for weekly hours, holiday, and call?
- What orientation, preceptor time, and ongoing unit support are included?
- How are patient load, floating, and staffing support handled day to day?
