Very lucky. I am very happy for you. It took me 3 months to find a job too, but boy was it an affort. I hated looking for a job not knowing when will I get it. I am happy for you. Go for a long fulfilling RN career. One more thing, don't stop h...
I would say take the job. Job market is very bad these days. New grads are haveing an impossible time finding a job. I know I almost filled more than a 100 apps before I got one. Even if you don't like it, take it. First of all most of the LTC p...

I guess I have posted my story before, but after reading others frustration that they will never get a job I thought I would share my story again. I got married before I started nursing school. I had a BS in biology, but the job I was gonna get wi...

Hey, I am in the same boat. I am new grad. After some hard work, I have been able to get my first job in an assissted living home as an RN. I like it, but its really not much of a nursing job. All you do it pass meds, do some, I would say very f...
Wow what a difference a couple of weeks make. I was in tears and about crying a few weeks ago. Now, I got a job and on the verge of getting another one. I applied for at least 100 jobs, anywhere and everywhere. I got some interview and most of th...

Ahhh........... I guess I am not alone here. I graduated with a BSN from UMD SON in 2004. After getting my BSN, I was flying hight. I had a job in hand and took NCLEX very lightly. I failed twice. Failing made me promise myself I will never tak...
