  1. I never feel guilty for not working on my days off.
  2. How long can it take to hear back from an employer?

    The hospitals that hired me, all called me less than a week after me applying. Other took months before calling. One place called me about a position, in a different specialty than I applied for. Definitely follow up and show your continued interest.

  6. Things you'd LOVE to tell coworkers...and get away with it!

    What do you mean I will "get used to it"? We shouldn't get used to working in unsafe working conditions. And you have a union??? I'm putting in for a transfer ASAP. You might be "used to it", but I deserve better.
  7. Hospital nurses - is it really that bad?

    Right now, you are trying to take pre-requisities. You can do this at CUNY while you research second degree nursing programs. You would just be consider 'pre-nursing'

  12. Did you leave soon after your "One Year"?

    Update: I was successful at landing another job before my year was up. I'm now working 2 jobs. Bumping the thread up to read of other experiences.
  13. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLP: ***opens thread*** "I need someone to rate all the nursing schools in X state from best to worst" OR: "I graduated NS. Now what?" " I scheduled my NCLEX. Now what?" "I passed my NCLEX. Now what?" "I received a job offer...
  14. New Grad Resigned from 2 jobs within last 8 months

    Can you tell me where I can find this law, because I know a few new grads who were hired straight into the ER right here in NYC, and most did not go through an ER fellowship or have any med surg exp
  15. New Grad RN CAN'T FIND WORK!! What should I do?

    I agree. With every interview I had, I applied for the job online, that's it. No follow up with HR. The places I DID follow up with, I got nowhere with.
