Does anyone work PRN?

Hi everyone! I was just wondering if anybody has picked up a PRN job along with their full time job?

I am only curious because how did you initially find the time to start a new PRN job? Did you have to take PTO for the prn job orientation? If not how did you make this work? Did your PRN job make any special exceptions for you as far as orientation?

Thanks in advance :)

I started off full-time and then went prn after getting another ft job in a specialty.

I have not and I would not bc my full-time job requirements and competencies leave very little time for anything else. PRN jobs require orientation, usually a certain amount of shifts worked month/pay period, etc. It is not for me because currently I want my time off to be totally off. However, many need to work PRN and are successful doing so. Just know the terms of your full-time contract. Many employers forbid new grads or employees a certain months into their work from working PRN. Just FYI your full-time employer will probably not bend to accommodate your PRN job.

I dont theoretically NEED to work PRN i would just like to further my resume
