Will this ruin my chances?Rating: (votes: 0) Oh, this is weird. I guess the recruiter really is trying. I just checked the status of my application online and noticed that I have an application with today's date put into the system for a different department (Med/Surg/Peds). It was highlighted in yellow, indicating there has been a status change. I guess the recruiter is trying to place me on a different floor. I never applied online today so it had to have been the recruiter. I'm sure she has the capability of making re-submitting applications and such??? Comment:
Let her do her thing for a week, then call and follow up. If she let's you know the application is making progress in the system try to find out the manager's names so you can write a personal intro letter to them.I wouldn't go over her head. I might go around her by contacting the manager myself, but only after HR has had a fair chance.

I agree mainly with Canoehead- do NOT contact VP of HR; that may be inferred that you are not following directions/ are inpatient/ too aggressive.Follow-up with the Telemetry manager would be adviseable after you give HR 1 week; its only been 2 days from your original post.You can not control everything in life - including the timing of important events. If it is meant to be it will happen. Despite the 'return of the school year' -if the position is meant to be yours it will happen- your employer can easily find another replacement. Diplomatic discussion with your current boss and potential new employer will enable you to transition to your new role. THis is a career- your'e not 'flipping burgers' so an issue with scheduling should not be a prime focus.

I agree with the above. Don't go over the recruiters head. An email or note, maybe even a brief phone call to unit managers may help get their attention. Then there's no more you can do. Your post sounds very anxious. You need to lose that right off. Casual friendly communications will be more appealing to prospective managers. Since you already have a job, relax. Good luck.

let it play out as it will. If you REALLY wanted to give your current employer time to find a replacement you would have applied months ago. There is always someone to fill your shoes, so just roll with it.

I also agree that you should not go over her head. I am surprised that it appears she is helping you. You don't want to spoil a good thing.

Crap!!! I've got something similar going.I did call this recruiter again, and found out she is out of the office for a week. I did not leave a message. Well, at least I know that much.
