I know each place with be different, but I just wanted to see what kind of responses I would get. Thanks!! |
As a trainee it will be tough. Trainee's are generally assigned a schedule and they have little to zero say on it. Once certified you'll be at the bottom of the seniority list so you won't have a lot of schedule choices when you bid. You will be able to shift swap with other people so that would help work things out.
