tl;dr - Is it unheard of to ask a hospital to guarantee in writing the minimum number of hours I'll be working for a PRN job?
I'm trying to move to Seattle and there's a hospital I where I REALLY want to work. But the only job listing online is a PRN position. I don't mind working PRN for them since it'll at least get my foot in the door but I need some sort of assurance that money will be coming in the bank especially since I'd be moving from Texas. If they verbally say that they'll give me at least 30 hours a week, is it totally out of the question for me to request that in writing? I don't want to come off as too demanding.
My background is fairly decent. I've been working one of the highest rated hospitals in the world for nearly 3 years with specialty pharmacy satellite experience in ICU, OR, and chemo.
