   What dept are you interviewing for? Good luck!

2. Parkland ER Nurse Residency 2012

   ProudRN2B replied to Prettyladie's topic in Texas

   Goopsy, in reference to your question about the schedule. Yes your schedule will be set for the 2 years contract period, which starts after your residency. You won't neccessarily get nights, it's usually about 50/50 with who gets nights or days. They...

3. How do I word this on my resume?

   ProudRN2B replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New Nurse

   I listed the BSN, even though I haven't been accepted and it helped me to finally get a job. I think most hospital systems have an automated system that picks up and throws out resumes according to key words. I know mine was getting kicked back becau...

   Congratulations!

5. Critical Care Trauma Nurse Parkland

   ProudRN2B replied to criticalRN10's topic in Texas

   Thanks. I was getting discouraged because I graduated in Dec, so I needed this!

6. Critical Care Trauma Nurse Parkland

   ProudRN2B replied to criticalRN10's topic in Texas

   Just as I posted, I got a call from Parkland! I got the position! She also sent me an email. Hopefully, they will have the same courtesy to contact you but I think at PArkland, they always do either way. Good luck to you. Maybe it won't be much long...

   Meggo, who are you waiting to hear back from? I had an ER interview and I'm getting discouraged because I haven't heard anything yet and a poster posted that they were offered a position on Friday.

8. Texas Nursing Jurisprudence Examination

   ProudRN2B replied to jmcolemanRNBSN's topic in Texas

   It's easy. Most of it is common sense; the rest, you have time to look up the answers. Even if you fail, you can retake it every ten days.

9. DFW GN/RN June 2011 Internships

   ProudRN2B replied to meggo's topic in Texas

   Well I'm a December grad so that's why I'm a bit discouraged. Thought passing the NCLEX would help but it hasn't. Most recruiters are no help, they just say apply online, which I'm doing of course. Out of over 200 apps, I've only had the Tele and one...

10. DFW GN/RN June 2011 Internships

    ProudRN2B replied to meggo's topic in Texas

    Well, I have several things working against me. I don't work for Baylor, have no hospital experience and only have my ADN. I heard last round they took 6 people and only 1 had an ADN. This round they said they are taking 4 people. I haven't heard any...

11. DFW GN/RN June 2011 Internships

    ProudRN2B replied to meggo's topic in Texas

    txmommyof3, curious to know when that person was offered the position. Was it for Telemetry-Baylor Grapevine? I interviewed for that position as well and haven't heard anything.

12. Which is the best review book for NCLEX-RN Exam?

    ProudRN2B replied to sweetlady10's topic in NCLEX

    Do you need it for content or questions? For content, the Saunders Comp. review is good. I prefer the PRentice Hall Reviews and Rationales book personally. However, they both lack in questions. I felt out of all the questions I did, the Saunders Q&am...

13. GN determined to pass NCLEX, need motivation??!?

    ProudRN2B replied to jojonightengaleGN's topic in NCLEX

    Just wanted to add, don't worry about the HESI. I don't feel it's a good predictor. I did poorly on all my HESI's. The exit HESI I only made a 784 and I passed the NCLEX with 75 questions the first time. HESI to me was all content and a lot I'd never...

14. GN determined to pass NCLEX, need motivation??!?

    ProudRN2B replied to jojonightengaleGN's topic in NCLEX

    Do you feel that being out of school for so long can be a factor? If you need a good review, Hurst is a great review! It's expensive, but it is a good review of content, unlike the Kaplan that focuses on strategies (which I didn't find worked). I th...

15. What can I do over the summer, if I don't get an externship?

    ProudRN2B replied to SoCalgirl06's topic in General Students

    Work as a CNA. The two places I interviewed preferred you had CNA experience. If I had known that was important, I would've done it during my summers.
