1. Mayo Clinic

   snag replied to Jetaime684's topic in Minnesota

   Dear Methos64, Thanks for the reply. I was just wondering if there is anything the interviewers look for that might be "out of the blue" or difficult to formulate a response to. I haven't had any clinical experience since last April when I was in s...

2. Mayo Clinic

   snag replied to Jetaime684's topic in Minnesota

   Dear Jenrosie, I was called today by the Mayo Clinic for an interview. I live in Alaska and will have to spend several days getting to and through the process. I am a new grad and an RN in Alaska. I haven't worked yet so this will be for my first ...

3. Soooo, I think I may have a new job lined up...

   snag replied to raindrop's topic in New Nurse

   You know, I hear those types of warnings all the time about what not to say. How do those ignorant, catty slobs ever get corrected in life? Do they just always assume (correctly) that they can get away with that kind of behavior? Are they supposed...

4. Upset - sorry so long

   snag replied to JentheRN05's topic in New Nurse

   One question...do you think they would have the guts to treat a newly hired physician this way? I DON"T THINK SO!!! Equality is supposed to apply EQUALLY!

5. Interiview advice

   snag replied to wendyjpa's topic in Career Support

   Hey, with the nursing shortage in this country they need you...you don't need them. If they want to play games and be "brutal", take a walk and find somewhere else to work. One year of experience and you can just about find anything you want. That...

7. Internship question

   snag posted a topic in New Nurse

   Dear folks, I am looking forward to some expert advice...maybe from the moderator. I apologize if this question has been addressed somewhere else on this site. I did do a search for more specific areas, but they didn't seem to hit at the center of ...

   Thanks a lot RN34TX! That will give us a better idea of what needs to be considered before answering this type of question. Have a good one! Snag

9. Appropriate RN Delegation

   snag posted a topic in NCLEX

   Hi everyone! Just passed my NCLEX the other day but a friend of mine is still studying for her exam and she asked me a question I couldn't answer very well (no big surprise since I am a brand new RN and have EVERYTHING to learn!). She asked m...

    Dear everyone, I live in Fairbanks and have been flying in the military for 22 years...the last 16 up here. I am now a brand new licensed BSN/RN just having graduated from the University of Rochester's Accelerated Nursing Program. I am going to see...

11. I Made It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    snag replied to KristinWW's topic in General Students

    Congrats to you KristinWW!! I just retired 2 years ago from a military career and decided to apply (as a lark) to Columbia University's "Entry To Practice" program for non-nurses w/ a prior BS. This is a 3-year program when you enter as a non-nurse...

12. Nursing/CNA Experience

    snag replied to lilshamrock's topic in General Students

    I'm going to attend a school that I applied to precisely because they are an accelerated program for non-nurses who hold a Bachelor's degree and have the prerequisites done. I hope they don't expect me to know any health care...that is why I'm comin...

    BarbPick You're not an old nurse...you are an excellent one and I hope someday I will know as much as "your type" forgets!!!

14. statistics

    snag replied to PedsNurse07's topic in General Students

    I took stats through Excelsior College's program that allows you to take 1 test and get a letter grade. I ordered their entire "guided learning package" which takes you through stats from no background to ending up with simple linear regression. It...

15. "You're Not Going to Make It"

    snag replied to Sheri257's topic in General Students

    Too bad you're paying big bucks for a jerk like that. The reason students fail in such numbers is probably due to his worthlessness as an instructor. You are paying for a service and not receiving it...would you pay a mechanic to fix your car knowi...
