Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of updating my resume for my second RN job and I'm hoping you can help me figure out what to do with my preceptorship experiences during nursing school. I graduated in May 2012 and began working July 2012 on a PCU (mainly cardiac). The job I'm applying for is an intermediate cardiac unit--basically the same thing I'm doing right now. As of right now my resume looks something like this:

Should I leave my preceptorships or remove them? As of right now I've left them because the CVICU I precepted on as a student really gave me incredible experiences that I haven't had in the PCU I work in as an RN. Since I left that, I figured I may as well leave the other 2? If I do remove my preceptorships I could move my CNA work experience with my one RN job and not have 2 employment sections.

Also, any recommendations regarding leaving the nursing student association I was involved in or removing it? I was an officer and did various things as opposed to my other 2 memberships that I don't really do anything with besides use their resources.

Thanks a lot for any help!!
