   vicky3269 replied to piscesmama's topic in California

   There is a SNF in Fort Bragg (a coastal town in Mendocino County) called Sherwood Oaks that was hiring new grad RNs last month. If any of you don't mind relocating to a beautiful area right on the beach, I would check into it. I only know this beca...

2. Preparing for RN grad jobs

   vicky3269 replied to Tristar's topic in California

   vicky3269 posted a topic in NCLEX

   My friend took the NCLEX a week and a half ago and her name still is not posted on the board as an RN. She had 265 questions. We are thinking she probably failed. How much longer will it be before she gets the FAILED notice in the mail? Her IP is...

    You know I'm not really stressing over 500 applicants, because I feel whatever is meant to be will happen. If I am meant to work at the VA, I will fill one of those 10 spots, regardless of how many apply. :wink2:
