On paper the assignment is 14 weeks long, about 35 hours a week and on the Day shift, about 490 scheduled hours end to end. Licensure and credentialing run alongside the submission rather than after it, so your CA paperwork is under way while the submission is in review and not left to the last week before the Salinas start date.
