   OutOfStater replied to sameasalways's topic in Alaska

   Sorry for the much later reply, but may look into Alaska Surgery Center. Google should reveal several others as well.

3. Moving to Anchorage in Jan-Feb '17

   OutOfStater replied to sameasalways's topic in Alaska

   I believe most AK license transfers are pretty quick, but I am unsure of the details. It's mostly some paperwork and some cash, the licensing board themselves seems pretty on top of it. I'd be shocked if your not making more here (likely considerably...

4. Moving to Anchorage in Jan-Feb '17

   OutOfStater replied to sameasalways's topic in Alaska

   Providence or Alaska Native are "the" places to work in town. I can't tell you specifics unit wise (I am just starting to work as a RN in town now myself). Pay for new grads is ~$33 an hour base, so with experience I'd imagine you should be above $3...

   I'd also be curious if anyone knows when SVH posts their new grad jobs!

9. Interview at Providence Hospital in Anchorage

   OutOfStater replied to ScrubGirl88's topic in Alaska

   Yayy!!!! Congratulations!! I'm glad to hear the second interview is a little more laid back. Did they give you a start date? I hear they start pretty far after graduation for most folks.

12. UALR or UAMS?

    OutOfStater replied to TaylorJ19's topic in Arkansas

    I got to UAMS now and you can certainly work, although I would wait until after your first rotation or two. There are multiple opportunities to become involved and line a job up within a NICU if that's your preference. I do feel as though I'll be ver...

13. Travel vs permanent work

    OutOfStater replied to Surfandnurse's topic in Alaska

    Working any job "in town" such as ANC or FAI is likely going to bring your pay down quite a bit in comparison to working somewhere in the bush. The cost of living however, is tremendously cheaper in say, ANC than it is in Bethel or Nome, where gas ca...

14. Travel vs permanent work

    OutOfStater replied to Surfandnurse's topic in Alaska

    I've never heard of travelers making less in AK than staff nurses. AK has a solid pay rate for staff nurses, but it certainly isn't that large. I can't imagine travelers getting paid less (if you did get paid less as a traveler, it would likely be eq...

    Sounds good to me! I figured it would be competitive but I'm glad to hear it's not as crazy sounding as applying to some other places. Thanks again!
