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

    schertz7 replied to ponyboy86's topic in Government, Military

    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...

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

  5. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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

  6. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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...

  7. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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...

  8. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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...

    Congrats tokuno421! Hopefully I'll hear some news from CPO Fleming soon too

  11. Navy FY18 Direct Assessions

    schertz7 replied to MissIllCrisis's topic in Government, Military

    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...

    Any news yet? :) still nothing on my end. Impatiently

  13. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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

  14. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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...

  15. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    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...

  16. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    There's a good chance the February class is or will be full already from the people selected at the end of the last fiscal year. I remember talking to people in one of the Facebook groups that got...

  17. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    I've been told by someone who just left recruiting that this time of year they focus heavily on NCP selections and the DA selections can often take a backseat. And that they may delay making...

  18. Negotiating with Detailers Navy nursing

    schertz7 replied to MissIllCrisis's topic in Government, Military

    I too am waiting for the results from the October boards - Good luck! From what I've been told by my recruiter and some current/prior Navy nurses, getting to go OCONUS on your first assignment is...

  20. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    Credentialing took about ~3 weeks altogether I think. If your references are quick to respond it might go faster but I think most people will say a couple of weeks is typical. I was supposed to go to...

  21. Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

    schertz7 replied to DiscGolfNurse's topic in Government, Military

    I started my package last November when I was still in nursing school. There were some delays for various things so I had everything but credentials done by May. Credentials in July, boards this month...

  22. Missed navy NCP deadline...now what

    schertz7 replied to LukeShoe's topic in Government, Military

    Well I think it really varies. I would ask your recruiter. I am prior service, had a 3.5 GPA, was president of my local SNA and have about 9 months experience in a step down ICU - I'm still being told...

  23. Missed navy NCP deadline...now what

    schertz7 replied to LukeShoe's topic in Government, Military

    You could go the direct accession route. That's what I ended up doing. You'll have to have a minimum of 3 months of experience post-BSN, post-orientation period.. which is fine because it's a long...

  24. Navy DA nursing

    schertz7 replied to NDnurse84's topic in Government, Military

    I just finished my packet - it took from last Thanksgiving until the end of August of this year in total. Part of the delay was that credentialing would not even begin their process until I had...

  25. Navy Direct Accession FY18

    schertz7 posted a topic in Government, Military

    Just curious if anyone is going to boards for DA for the Navy FY18 with the new year right around the corner. I started my packet at the end of 2016 when I was still in my last block of nursing school...
