HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL PLANS HER NEXT CAREER MOVE AND NEXT VACATION
Healthcare Career Site Announces Winner of 10-Day Mediterranean Cruise
ATLANTA (February 12, 2001) - Leading healthcare career network MedCAREERS (www.medcareers.com)
today announced that Carrie Judkins of Sioux City, Iowa was the lucky winner of a 10-day Norwegian Dream Mediterranean/Black Sea cruise for two.
MedCAREERS teamed with partner The Travel Outlet and Norwegian Cruise Lines, to offer healthcare employers and Job Seekers using MedCAREERS career management solutions a stress free getaway.
"I still can’t believe this. All I was interested in was putting my resume online to see if there is anyone looking for a PA, said Carrie Judkins physician assistant student at University of South Dakota. I’ll have to email you all from Greece and let you know how beautiful it is there."
To qualify for the drawing, new users had to complete the site registration form and post a resume or set up a job poster (employer) account on MedCAREERS before October 31, 2000.
"We understand that healthcare professionals have demanding schedules and this cruise drawing recognizes the importance of stress management," said Will Goldstein, president and CEO of MedCAREERS. "Thanks to help from The Travel Outlet and Norwegian Cruise Lines, MedCAREERS will be able to give Carrie the chance to study at the base of Ionic columns."
The prize drawing was held on November 15, 2000. The cruise will set sail from Athens, Greece on October 3, 2001 and conclude in Istanbul, Turkey.
The Travel Outlet provides comprehensive online travel management services for MedCAREERS. Resources including online flight, car and hotel reservations can be found in the "Services" section of MedCAREERS.
