New Grad with IPN contract

[curr987]

Hello everyone,

I have a 2 year contract with IPN for DUI x 2, that happened before i was ever licensed as a nurse. I have been in IPN for about 2 months now and received my license shortly after i signed my contract. I have been applying to new grad programs and recently got a call back for an interview. I was wondering if I should tell human resources about IPN during that interview or should i what to see if I ever get the job? Im worried if I wait and get offered the job they might recant it? I'm not even sure HR needs to know? I have no restrictions. Any help or advice would be great? Thanks!

Folks, it is a hard, cruel world out there in employment-land. I was fired from a medical records job that did not require a license because of my history of discipline on a now-clear license! I have a license with no restrictions now and no discipline but I can't get hired for any nursing job.

I have been trying to get a nursing job for over 4 years and may have to face the fact that my career is over for good. The way the job market is now, employers are looking for anything to eliminate you from the pile of applicants.

As old Walter Cronkite used to say: " And that's the way it is." (God I feel old tonight )
