Please help, any advice?

Hello to everyone here,

I just passed the nclex-rn recently. I am holding Oregon license and now applying for Washington license mainly because I am living here in Vancouver, WA and I really wanted to apply at Southwest Washington Medical center. So while waiting for my second license, I am currently applying to some staffing agencies at Portland (MAXIM) and here in Vancouver (AAA Medical Staffing).

I am a graduate from the Philippines, I stopped my nursing career way back in April 2006 in the Philippines because me and my son migrated here. So basically, I am jobless for more than 2 years now and my experience is only working in a clinic, no specialty at all.

I don't know if I am really doing the RIGHT TRACK here?:bugeyes:

*applying to agencies at Portland,

*getting my CPR training this weekend

* i want to apply at Kaiser too but I am a SLOW Typer so i guess I might gonna fail their typing test

*and as soon as my WA license I am going to apply at Southwest Washington Hospital.

Honestly, I am so anxious right now and my husband told me that I should only apply in one employer. Should I just wait for my WA license and stop my other applications? But what if I SWWMC won't accept me?

Please tell give me you advise or insight. Please guide me.:plsebeg:

I would wait for the WA license and then apply to the hospital you mentioned. Is that the only hospital in the area?

I don't think the staffing agencies would help you at all. You have no recent experience and the experience you had was in a clinic. So your choices are limited as far as where they could send you.
