1. This is a reason why I might not of gotten hired, any thoughts?

   bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

   Just a note that my expectations were from months ago and I have taken the advice that I received from it since then. No where did I say I was looking in Boston, nor do I even live close to there. The one nursing home I went too was paying particular...

2. MCPHS? RN to BSN

   bellynursegurl replied to EDRN-2010's topic in Massachusetts

   Your welcome. I was going to go there myself. I believe if you go to your previous college they can help you transfer. Your old college site should have a transfer advising page that lets you know which college they have agreements with on transferri...

3. Nursing recruiter bragging

   bellynursegurl replied to kendel's topic in General Nursing

   I hear that all the time. Mind you I haven't had a home in over 3 years, because no one will hire me. I have heard everything in the book as well. I just ignore it and move on with my life. Don't let someone ruin your day over it. It makes me sick t...

   bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

   Oh I don't want to make anyone feel that they can't get a job in this field. I have friends who are luckier than I, people have tried helping me, I have gone to my college to have career counseling, etc. I wasn't getting anywhere. I just wanted a car...

   bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

   Thanks so much for the reply. I kind of found out why. It seems the travel agency I worked for (not mentioning names) removed me from their system. Probably because I didn't want to travel anymore. So without references no one will hire me. I do have...

6. MCPHS? RN to BSN

   bellynursegurl replied to EDRN-2010's topic in Massachusetts

   It is a good school. As for their BSN program I received a letter and advertisement a few months back, but I haven't heard anything from anyone either. I am going into their Pharmacy program, but that is another story. Doesn't Framingham State still...

7. One more try

   bellynursegurl replied to VM85's topic in Massachusetts

   Have you tried Kindred? I am sure you have. I have waited for them as well. What about the VA? Probably that one too. We don't live in the same neighborhoods, but I feel your pain. I really do.

   Thank you. But, I am not sitting it out I have two jobs, getting paid what I was asking for. Just not in a hospital. Things always happen for a reason. Thank you everyone for your positive outlook and suggestions.

    bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

    No LTC is definitely my thing, that is where I started right from Nursing School. I must say I loved it. But, I am not going to work for peanuts or play games with recruiters who offer me one thing and then say another. I can't even find a nursing ho...

11. I'm a nurse. Not a housekeeper!

    bellynursegurl replied to EpiattIPNurse's topic in Private Duty

    I am a clean freak as well, but I don't think I will do it unless I mess it or to keep supplies organized in their proper place so it easier for me to get to. This was my question before I was hired. Will I be doing these type of things. He said, "no...

    bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

    Thanks for your responses and suggestions. Mind you I don't live in Boston. I only apply to positions which hours they have for me. So it isn't like I am applying for something that requires full-time work or something that I couldn't do. Most jobs...

    bellynursegurl posted a topic in Massachusetts

    After reading numerous things on why people don't get hired. I figured it must be my credit report. After getting laid off in 07, well life wasn't grand for me. After no one would hire me, because my lack of experience as a RN, and running out of sav...

14. CORI's what is taking so long?

    bellynursegurl replied to bellynursegurl's topic in Massachusetts

    I don't know. I thought I would look for another job, but I really want this one, because it is Private Duty. It will be 5 weeks this Thursday and I am running out of savings. I might try the Federal prison, and see how long their CORI's take. I did ...

    Thanks. It hasn't taken this long before, but I did do travel nursing for over a year. Things are different and the economy has surely changed since then.
