"One of the attractive points of working for Texas Children's Hospital is that you care about the growth of your employees. I'm motivated to learn and am looking for a long-term fit. In three to five years, I'd like to be grounded in the hospital and earn certifications that would help the unit advance. I want to get involved in some of the local volunteer organizations. I speak Spanish and am interested in urban outreach, so it would be nice to do something formal in that context: health education or fundraising."
