Well, finally happening...... two years (four if you count pre reqs) of blood, sweat and tears... friendships and bonds formed..... more knowledge than I can imagine ever entering my brain....and still feeling a little stupid even having done well...... and I have a job lined up right where I have worked all along, in LTC, with people I know and love. I will be starting as soon as I get my authorization to test from the BON, and my letter to practice as an RNA (RN applicant). No pressure to pass NCLEX..... So where has everyone accepted positions?

Congrats!!! I am t-14 days until graduation myself and took a job in a different state where I'll be cross trained in peds, OB, and NICU and then get placed/get to pick (still a little fuzzy on those details) one of those 3 units for a permanent position. Being a peds nurse has been my dream for about 6 years now. Now just to pass that damn test!
Yep but that's what we've trained for, so we can do it! Sounds like an awesome plan you have there! Best wishes!

I'm an RNA too (maybe the same state because I haven't seen it called that anywhere else), but I woun't get to work as one because my start date isn't until July 6. I take the NCLEX on the June 8th (or maybe earlier depending on how I feel). I'll be working in a big NICU.
