On paper the assignment is 9 weeks long, about 36 hours a week and on the Day shift, about 324 scheduled hours end to end. Licensure and credentialing run alongside the submission rather than after it, so your NM paperwork is under way while the submission is in review and not left to the last week before the Albuquerque start date.
