  1. 1st job, desk job

    I think it's a great idea to be working period, making your future job applications more attractive, vs. being unemployed and not gaining any experience.
  2. Should I give up?

    Maybe a career coach could assist regarding what direction to take next.
  3. Inability to Land a Job With Experience?

    Have you considered a staffing agency?
  4. Interviewer didn't like me from the start?

    Consider that interview of premonition of what you would be working with had you been hired for that position. My experience with interviews in the past have told me to expect the unexpected. Many different styles of interviews are demonstrated, so...
  5. Hanging It Up

    Thank you for posting a nice, inspiring post. Your hard work and dedication to the field has yielded a new direction for you. It's nice to know that there are other areas available, especially for those having a difficult time getting a foot in the...
  6. Feel like I really messed up my interview =[ LONG

    Sounds like you held your own during the interview. As you invited to more interviews in the future, you will observe that each style may be different. Be prepared for anything. Wishing you the best of luck with the position.
  7. Rejection stinks :/

    The job search today is very frustrating, mind-boggling, and depressing. Keep plugging away at apps and interviews. Remain confident, and positive. Many are in the same boat, so no that you are not alone. Today's job climate is in the favor of th...
  8. What is fair pay rate for my situation?

    Kudos to you for being accepted for a position as an RN. I wouldn't worry so much about that pay rate. With you getting your foot back in the door, you can get the recent experience many positions are requiring these days.
  9. Resigning

    The place you were working at apparently only cared for the almighty dollar, instead of patient safety. I would have left too. Imagine working on a short staffed shift, and having some type of critical event occur. Do you believe the company would ...
  10. Had I noticed the error, I would have approached the fellow student on the insulin issue. Maybe the two of you could have accomplished the task together. When I was in nursing school, the students were advised to help one another out during clinica...
  11. What you should never say at an interview

    Will you excuse me while I take this call?
  12. Rn being trained by lpn?

    I had a couple of LPNs orient me in the areas of med administration, and other floor duties. They had a wealth of experience and were a pleasure to work with.
  13. So depressed! Left hospital can't get back in.

    It appears as though the hospitals have numerous applicants for the positions posted/advertised. A majority of the facilities require a year's recent experience. Those who do not meet that criteria join the exclusion pool, including those with rece...
  14. Help

    If hospitals won't take a look at you, try a staffing agency.
  15. Negative Feedback from GN Interview - HELP!!!

    I find that personalities may clash. While you know that this is the perfect fit for you, the nurse manager may see otherwise. Could be simply a matter of who presents the best. Remember, in most positions offered today, the candidate pool is much...
