Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
In a rsum, it is best to focus on accomplishments and use active verbs to describe
skills. Professional preparation of a rsum is not necessary, and telephone communication is
generally discouraged. A cover letter should ideally not exceed one page in length.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
As of 2008, over 89 of nurses worked in hospital settings, 4.8 worked in longterm
care, and 4.3 worked in community-based or ambulatory care settings. Only 1.7 of
nurses indicated that they worked in other settings.
