   Anyone hear any news or status updates thus far this month from their recruiter? Mine is still radio silent

   schertz7 replied to ponyboy86's topic in Government

   1. Talk to a medical recruiter. 2. Post-BSN nursing experience, good grades, letters of recommendation, and much much more. Talk a recruiter. 3. I believe there are options for this but I think you have to waive your ability to take a bonus if you ta...

   I haven't heard anything yet. My package went to the board in October if that makes you feel any better.

   Nada. I was hopeful as well but I'm guessing it'll be a couple more weeks at this point. Get through the new year holiday and everyone's vacations and what not. Kind of a bummer.

   Jfratian thanks for the input. This is pretty much what I do now and have been doing for a little over a year now (straight out of nursing school as a new grad). We deal with very high acuity critically ill patients that come from all of the level 1/...

   I applied as med/surg too! Even though the hospital I work in is technically critical care the Navy credentialling office didn't see it that way apparently if I don't get in this go around I'll reapply once I have my CCRN... ICU or Trauma is my goal...

8. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

   schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government

   That seems a bit odd. My recruiter indicated that the results for Reserves had been released by the boards but nothing yet for Active Duty. I believe the people who applied for Reserves should know their selection status now and they receive a letter...

    It's possible but I would just prepare yourself for slower results. My package went to boards in October, and I think others here are Oct/Nov. From what we've all been told it seems this is fairly common this time of year. Fingers crossed we'll hear ...

    I am from the Phoenix area. I'm working with CPO Fleming at the Tempe office. Are you applying for active duty or reserves? He said hopefully we'll hear in the next couple of weeks before Christmas.

    I applied for active duty - I'm former enlisted Army so my plan is to go back and do the full retirement gig, eventually apply for DUINS and get my NP with a specialty in Emergency and Trauma medicine. Because I applied for DA right out of school (a ...

    I just got the below text from my recruiter this morning. Sounds like NCP is the culprit. Maybe we'll hear something by mid-December :) "The last word I got on Friday, was the boards have not closed as scheduled. Meaning they are still looking at pa...
