  1. Palo Alto VA New Grad Program fall 2012

    I declined the interview I had offered at the IICU (I have taken a job elsewhere). But I've been talking with the nurse recruiter for some time about this position. The program starts Oct. 9. At the IICU it's a panel interview with 3-4 people. Their ...
  2. Interview at Duke

    I interviewed for Neuro. Hope I get it, Duke looks like an awesome place to work and I really want to move out there!
  3. Interview at Duke

    I ended up e-mailing the nurse recruiter I've been working with. She said to show up in scrubs. And it will be a individual not group interview. Maybe they've changed the format for the SNIP hiring?
  4. Interview at Duke

    Really? For the shadow period too? I'm slightly conflicted as they said you can wear scrubs even to the interview. The interview is first at 1230. Then I am scheduled for a two-hour shadow starting at 1pm. I was thinking about going in suit first the...
  5. VA Palo Alto New Graduate Program 2012

    Has anyone heard from the VA for those that applied to the Fall 2012 cohort?
  6. Interview at Duke

    Hi everyone! I have an interview for their new grad program next week. Did you go in wearing your scrubs (for those that had a shadow period right after)?
  7. interview for ICU as a student nurse

    If situational have examples handy of when you did certain ICU-like things.
  8. IICU, Telemetry, Med-Surg, Cardio-thoracic ICU, Oncology, and I think BMT.
  9. Nursing school + working - WWYD?

    Oh I didn't catch that it was a nights position just now until re-read. I had friends that worked nights and then went to school/clinical the next day. They just slept all day after school. Are you going to be able to sleep? Can you afford daycare or...
  10. Nursing school + working - WWYD?

    I went through a similar length program. And I had a infant/toddler during that time. And my husband is on Active Duty...he deployed twice during nursing school. And I worked for the VA the whole time (as a student nurse tech and VALOR student) anywh...
  11. RN Panel Interview

    Good luck! Just keep calm and don't rush your answers.
  12. Yet another unemployed new grad..

    Sorry to hear you're in a rough spot. The best thing I can suggest is to just keep looking. Maybe have someone look over your resume and cover letters to see if they need to be changed around. You could also try to get add'l certifications like IV st...
  13. interview for ICU as a student nurse

    Do you know what kind of interview it is? Panel, group, individual? Find out what kind of questions they'll ask, is it going to be a regular interview, will they ask situational questions, or behavioral questions.
  14. Choosing b/w Psych. Center and Veterans Nursing Home!!

    Oh OK. Well, that makes it a little bit harder to decide. But I still think the LTC may offer more acuity than psych (more meds, maybe there will be central lines, tube feedings, etc.).
  15. VALOR @ Palo Alto

    I live with family in the northern Bay Area. It's a drive to Palo Alto, but I want to move to that area...and hope to when I get hired.
