What made you apply for this job? My job at St. Paul's Hospital was being phased out and relocated amongst other units. I didn't like any of the full time rotations being offered at St. Paul's so through the HEU they suggested the job at the Cancer Agency. I liked the Monday to Friday day only rotation, applied, was interviewed, and landed the job.
