1. What would you do?

   nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in Job Hunt

   I have two more interviews next week. I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for this one though. I have a second hurdle to cross, however. Even if they give me an offer, I need it to match what I currently make. I think that's going to be the longs...

2. What would you do?

   nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in Job Hunt

   True. Been there and done that. One would think this process would be faster since their staff is quite short-handed at present.

3. What would you do?

   nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in Job Hunt

   Yeah, I thought about an email, but I didn't get her email address. This is a 46-bed community hospital. I'm wondering if she even has business cards...? She barely has an office. I have a good feeling about this, just impatient about getting out of...

   nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in Job Hunt

   Oh, but I did. It was in the mail about an hour after the interview. :-)

5. What would you do?

   nursalicious posted a topic in Job Hunt

   I had a job interview that went very well on Monday. The nurse manager went as far as to tell me the job is mine if I want it and the nurse recruiter will be in contact with me to discuss pay and benefits. I realize this is a holiday week, but at w...

6. Does this sound too pretty?

   nursalicious posted a topic in General Nursing

   No one answered/had any advice on my previous post yesterday, but I went for my interview and it went very well, office manager said she'll be calling me to come back and interview with the physicians. The job is an infusion nurse at a rheumatology ...

9. Any advice for a nurse in limbo?

   nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in General Nursing

   ;)If I found something that had suitable hours for me and I really liked the job, then yes, I would leave my current job completely. My hours now are M-F 0730-1600, so I would pretty much have to leave. The hospital with the rad nurse job is a level ...

10. Any advice for a nurse in limbo?

    nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in General Nursing

    Orthonurse55: HR called me today to extend an offer for the rad nurse job, but I was unable to answer my cell. By the time I was able to get back to her, she was gone for the day. I think I will definitely delve into this a little deeper before I jus...

11. Any advice for a nurse in limbo?

    nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the suggestion. "Mind numbing" and "soul killing" are eerily accurate descriptions of what I'm feeling. My current job is definitely not making me feel alive.

12. Any advice for a nurse in limbo?

    nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in General Nursing

    I genuinely sympathize with the struggles many nurses on this board are enduring. I feel blessed that I have never had to go through needing a job and being unable to attain employment; however, the reason behind this post is not to moan and groan ab...

    nursalicious posted a topic in General Nursing

    This thread may be moved, but I don't know where else to post it. Here goes... I am stuck. I will have been an RN for 10 years next month, having spent the first 7 years of my career in ICU, then a year and a half in cath lab and EP lab before movin...

14. Are these holidays off the norm?

    nursalicious replied to nursalicious's topic in General Nursing

    My job in the ICU was very much like this...and if I was off on a holiday, I had eleventy billion people asking me if I would switch with them, work half the day for them, etc. (Not that I didn't understand, but stil...)

    I am! I hope it will be a job I will never ever want to leave.
