   I was under that same impression morgangreen. I interviewed for the residency program, however I am not selected for that. I wonder if they found out I am married to someone in the military and didn't want to risk the chance of me leaving soon. It's ...

   littleamyd replied to NurseBaddieRN's topic in Job Hunt

   Recruiters just called me and offered a position which I accepted. However, it's not with the residency program. I'll go through a normal orientation and have no contract to sign. Not what I was expecting, but thankful for a job no less.

   Well, I haven't heard anything from a recruiter or anything. However, the nurse manager that I emailed finally replied. She said that she was impressed and that someone from recruitment should be contacting me soon. It's hard to tell if she means tha...

   First off, congrats on your choice to enter the world of nursing! A&P was my favorite pre-req! In regards to preparing for nursing school, ask some first semester students if you can have a copy of their syllabus so that you can get a feel for wh...

   I received a full tuition scholarship and a pell grant during college for my first two years. My scholarship paid tuition, book services, and fees. My pell grant deposited into my account. I suggest saving every dime of that money if you can. I ended...

    I used many refrences, including classmates and workbooks, but I found google to be the best of help during pharm! I just googled 'how to remember med classes/med names' and took off from there. Also try remembering the prefixes/suffixes e.g. 'olol' ...

    I'll be sure to tell you when I hear something!! I interviewed for a general med-surg unit and a oncology unit. Fingers crossed for either of them because I desperately need a job, but oncology if I'm being honest :)

    Thank you all for your tips and suggestions! I ended up buying a suit that was 60% off on a one day sale! Pretty lucky :) I interviewed for two positions and I feel each interview was very positive. Now begins the hardest part: waiting!
