  1. SD New Grads: Jobs Available!!!

    Hey Panda, First of all, congrats on getting an interview and good luck. The interview process was actually really simple, especially compared to the rigorous sharp and scripps interviews. You will meet with the unit managers, just the two, and the...
  2. SDSU Fall 2012 admission hopefuls

    I'm eavesdropping on this thread and I noticed your question. I'm in the RN to BSN transition program at SDSU and just finished my international experience. During Spring, there are more opportunities and you travel during your spring break. The c...
  3. C-Diff, and isolation precautions

    Anyone with a history gets put on isolation as rule out and they get swabbed. If the swab comes back negative, then the isolation can come down. Also, C-diff is a monster. I would rather keep all my patients safe and isolate.

  10. My lament....my turn

    Oh yes sounds very familiar. I have been feeling pretty down myself because I am running out of ideas of where to apply. Do you happen to live in CA? I think I am in the worst state for new grad programs. I wish us both luck and maybe sometime soo...
  11. Feels like a slap in the face...

    WOW! Are you me? I worked at a hospital for over a year and I thought the least I would get is an interview. They did not even give me the pre-screen phone interview. I was completely disheartened and disappointed. I worked there for the experien...
  12. Anyone on the waiting list get a letter from San Diego City College?

    Hello All, Congrats on getting in to City. It has been a long road, I know. I am a recent graduate from their program. To answer the previous question, most of my class is planning on returning to school for their BSN. During the fourth semester,...

    I applied to three positions and one of them says referred to hiring department on 6/8. I hope I can at least get an interview. I had lost all hope getting into a new grad program.
