I combined the things that belonged together so I submitted like my BLS, ACLS, PALS, Fetal heart monitoring together, all 3 letters of recommendation together, then my resume, clinical rotations together. This is my second time applying to this program, I applied in the fall with only 2 letters of reference and I hadn't yet passed my NCLEX or gotten my ACLS, and I of course wasn't selected. I hope I have a better chance this time! Hopefully we all do.

Ooo, where did you do your fetal heart monitoring certs? I combined everything into one document: Cover letter, resume with QR code to capstone project/clinical and preceptorship hours etc, recc from preceptor, reccs from two instructors, BLS, ACLS, PALS, then transcripts.

I did that one through AWHONN, I became a student member through them and signed up for that course through there! I read that this program prefers BSN, so hopefully these extra certs help me a bit. Also the hiring manager posted this job posting on linkedin, I connected with her on linkedin and attached my linkedin profile to my application since they are active on that site.
