I took my exam this morning and same -- shut off at 75 questions and got the good pop-up! 75 felt soooo short. I'm hoping we all passed!!!

I recently applied to an extremely competitive nurse residency and I'm considering calling the unit I'm most interested in and asking if I can fax the nurse manager my resume and cover letter. Is it...

Thank you for the advice GrnTea! Applying for jobs in my vacation spots is a great idea! Why not live and work where I want to vacation? And of course, I can always do applications online while...

I recently graduated with a BSN and have been relentlessly applying for jobs for months now. I've had a few interviews, but no job offers so far. Since I've just graduated, I'm considering taking a...

SoldierNurse22, I have been reading your articles on AllNurses since you posted "The Fifteen" and I never cease to be inspired by your words. As a 21 year old nursing student, I have no idea...

I'm not an RN yet (in my last year of a BSN program), but I thought I'd chime in anyway. Most of the critical care nurses I know started on a med-surg unit and did not regret the experience they...

Congrats on getting the interview! This article has really helped me prepare for interviews in any specialty: http://allnurses.com/nursing-interview-help/how-answer-most-748905.html Be sure to...

Have you guys heard back yet? I hope I at least get an email if I wasn't selected.

I'm so happy for you! :laugh: Thanks for sharing.

Hi there! I recently had the opportunity to observe in the OR for a day. They were doing a live donor kidney transplant and the circulating nurse pulled me back and forth between the donor and...

Maybe nurse residencies could be federally funded? Not saying they should be, but it's an idea. Also, I don't believe there are only 50 new grads working in the ICUs annually. I was just...

Suga_junkie -- sounds like a great, nurturing environment to graduate into. Props to nurses in Australia!

Nursing schools may be trying to flood the market, but most new grads aren't eligible to apply to open positions so the system is failing us. If new grads did a 12-18 month residency in the field...

Ahhh this wait is brutal. I'm kind of assuming that I didn't get an offer at this point because it seems like they started notifying people a while ago, but it would still be nice to know. I feel...

After chatting with a fourth year med student today at clinical, it occurred to me how vastly different the physician career-path is from our own. Fourth year medical students are undergoing the...

I'd say you did really well in the interview. You answered the questions honestly and thoroughly. No one is best friends with every manager they've worked with, but it sounds like you acted...

It went really well! I went around to all the hospitals I was interested in and even checked out some grad schools. Turns out none of the recruiters were taking resumes, but I did get their cards...

Hey all! I am going to my first nursing career fair tomorrow and would appreciate some words of wisdom on how to be prepared. I'm in my last year of nursing school and will be graduating in May. ...

Hey there! So I'm a little confused about something... The other day I was talking to some first semester direct entry MSN program students who were discussing how to give SC injections --...

Looking at Erikson's theory on growth and development, it's clear that missing school and falling behind from his peers academically and socially will be a major concern. Maybe an intervention would...

Hi there! I'm doing a post-clinical care plan for peds and having some difficulty with the psychosocial nursing diagnoses... My pt was a 7 yo in the hospital for a chronic disease with GI...

Thank you for your responses! I thought about doing M/S but ended up choosing ED or Trauma ICU... I think either of those would be a challenge and I would learn a lot. We'll see if I get either of...

Hi there! I am a nursing student going into my senior year. The time is coming to choose a specialty for practicum next semester... and I just have no idea what to choose! I have had 2 med-surg...

Hey SoldierNurse22, I was just wondering how difficult it is to get a position in oncology in the army (or navy)? And do you live on base? How is your schedule? I'm going into my senior year of...

Thanks for the message! It won't let me reply to private messages, but I did receive it and it was very helpful! I will look into the BAH and continue doing my research into navy nursing... I will...
