Hello.
I keep getting turned down for every job I applied for, including an interview I had with Duke. I'm hoping that if I apply for licensure it will show them I am serious about NC.
I have a couple of questions regarding licensure by endorsement for an out of state individual. Any guidance or advice on where to find this information would be helpful. I have tried the NCBON website but its not super clear on the details IMO.
-How does livescan work? Do I have to be a current NC resident with an NC address or can I just do it in my state?
-If I can't do livescan out of state how long does it yak to receive a fingerprint card and then how long does it take to get the card processed?
-Do I just use my out of state address when applying for licensure and update when I get there? Would this mean I go from non compact licensure to compact licensure because I would then be a NC resident?
-Do I need to be in NC before applying for endorsement for any reason?
-Does the actual application give details about how to send transcripts from my school of nursing? I haven't started the application because you can't save your progress so I haven seen the actual online application yet.
-Do you pay the $150 application for endorsement fee and then wait to pay for fingerprinting or do they roll that into one fee with their application?
-Do they charge for the fingerprint card or would the Sheriffs office charge to finger print me and send it off?
Any help would e greatly appreciated. I'm having trouble getting a hold of the NCBON because I work PT Monday - Friday and they are often closed by the time I can get to the phone to call. Hopefully next week I will have a day off to call as well.
