Hello all--my question is this: I am in the process of moving from North Carolina to Colorado. I understand that since I am moving from one compact state to another, I will be able to practice using my NC RN license for 30 days, by which time I should have my CO license. I have no disciplinary actions or other problems with my license, it's just going to be a matter of waiting for the paperwork to go through. However, I was wondering if HR people or nurse recruiters at hospitals where I'm applying might be put off by the fact that I don't techinically have a CO RN license in hand yet. Will they just look at my out of state address and license and throw my application in the reject pile?!
