    dhusc1228 replied to treeye's topic in General Nursing

    Why not just do like we did before the use of online applications. If there is one in particular you want, just go in person. I thought about that prior to staying here. I wanted to work for Parkland and have read it takes forever for them to get bac...

    dhusc1228 replied to Calistudent1's topic in Job Hunt

    Sorry El Paso. I had planned to go to Dallas but the competition for jobs without experience even for a BSN is ridiculous. They hire ADN here. Instead I am staying in El Paso and getting my experience. All the hospitals here will hire including the n...
