Hi Jenny, wow you weren't kidding about the job description giving only a broad look at what the job entails. I even read in there where they referred the reader to look at a different job description (I mean, who is really going to do that?). It is a really great opportunity that you were given to observe the dynamics and day-to-day activities of the team to ensure you were able to DO the job, and get a sense of what types of stressors the job might bring as well. This is rarely the case. I did not get a chance to observe the position or the facility before I started and I also was not aware that my position was a newly created position. I did not really have a mentor or trainer, but in some ways it has been good having the ability to bring my own insights into the clinic and lay down the baseline for the position as well. It can sometimes be a difficult task navigating new position without fully understanding so I am glad you were given that opportunity.
