Volunteering at Mac hospital
Hey,
Last year I really wanted to volunteer at the mac hospital but even when I started checking in august there weren't any postings.
Later on in around november there were finally some postings but I didn't get a call from them...
So I was wondering is there any way to improve my chances of getting a position there and when about I should start applying for those positions....

Has anyone even actually volunteered there? It seems to be quite full from what I've heard from people who applied. =/

They tend to e-mail dodge. St. Joes was good at responding to calls |

Go to google maps, type in the address you want to get to. Click on Directions, it should be in part B of the directions. Then in part A put in McMaster University. Then click the train on tracks button for transit.

I've volunteered at my local hospital for the passed 6 years, do you think that would better my chances at getting one of these volunteer positions?
