Huh? We don’t have a freeze

These responses do bring a sigh of relief. Thanks everyone who responded 👍

Yeah this is not accurate

Very wrong
We have always hired few experienced hires, both before covid and now
No hiring freeze

We do hire few experienced hires compared to college hires
You can ask your offices recruiting leads, they can see the hiring targets

Not true at all. We are hiring left and right - all paths and levels.

Definitely still hiring

Im a RN and took on a new role working in Home Health.
