    Just a tip I found helpful, keep a little document for yourself that reminds you of situations that occurred during clinical. That way, when it's time to interview, you'll be able to remember clinical...

  6. Question About Hiring in ED

    Look for a new grad residency that is for ED specifically. Where I live, they start posting positions up to 6 months before the start date, so most people have jobs before we even graduate. It's a lot...
  7. Moving to Austin w/ ER experience, advice on hospitals

    I'm not sure, I'm only doing my clinicals there so I don't really have insight into their hiring process. One of the nurses I was with on the trauma side had been a M/S nurse for a couple of years but...
  8. Moving to Austin w/ ER experience, advice on hospitals

  9. TriStar Nurse Residency Program

    I spoke with the recruiter and she said it depended on the hospital, but base pay is about $22.20-$22.70. Differentials depend on the hospital as well. In other news, I recently accepted another offer...
  10. New Grad Job Search Anxiety

    I really think it's a lot of luck. ER jobs are hard to get. I am also graduating with my ADN. I interviewed for ER positions at a couple of hospitals and they all said they had literally hundreds of...

    I had a worksheet where I was given 7 scenarios and had to prioritize them and list the actions/interventions I would need to implement or expect to
  12. TriStar Nurse Residency Program

    You're right! But I haven't spoken to an HR recruiter through this whole process, so I'm unsure of who my contact would be. Pay was not brought up during the interviews and it comes off as a taboo...

  15. Seton/Dell Children's Nurse Residency July 2017

    I had a phone interview with the recruiter last week that was supposedly for the PICU, but he asked my questions related to location and unit preferences, so it seemed like more of a general...

  18. TriStar Nurse Residency Program

    I have no real idea. They made it sound like a big thing where all the departments sit down and go over the applicants and then choose which ones they want on their "team". But really, I have no idea....

    I did hear from Southern Hills that notification should begin April 19th and at Skyline they said to anticipate hearing something the week
  20. TriStar Nurse Residency Program

    I applied and interviewed at Centennial, Skyline, and Southern Hills and am hoping to move to Nashville from out of state as well! It is very frustrating, especially since I've applied to places here...
