Nevada employment checks

Published

hey guys! i'm actually a year away from taking my boards and i wish to be employed w/a las vegas hospital system. i'm actually just creating a general profile on one of the websites just to get my name out there but my healthcare work history goes back to like 05 and i have quite a few jobs between temp jobs, and scheduling conflicts w/school (as a reason for having to leave), some of the jobs i don't even think the supervisor works there anymore, do i have to put EVERY SINGLE PRACTICE i've worked at? or can i just put like last 3 years experience? i'm just wondering if nevada does an employment check??? anyone know?? any help or advice would be great! just tryin to get the ball rolling! thanks!!

Hello! I know that the Las Vegas hospitals do employment checks. I think that if you put down your employers that you worked for the last 5 years, that would be good enough. Or you could put down jobs that are the most comparable to an RN hospital job.

OK i'm just wondering because there were some temp jobs that i only worked for a few months, the one job i had the supervisor doesn't even work there anymore i don't think and i don't want there to be any problems w/references ( professoinal wise i would only use my current employer i doubt my previous employers remember me enough to give me a good reference) so when they do the employment checks, is it only like where i worked and for how long? like it won't say like reason for leaving or anything just employment verification? thanks!!

I can't speak to Nevada specifically but I was also taught to include the last 5 years of employement. If you had temporary jobs that were meant to be temporary then I would definitely indicate that on my resume so it doesn't look like you were unable to hold a steady job because you had multiple jobs that lasted only a few months.
