Good afternoon, I recently passed my RN boards and I'm currently searching for a job. I am in Massachusetts with my associates degree so basically it's about who you know at this point and lots of praying haha. I have a ton of experience including I...

Thank you for the advice ! I totally agree with you about the zero feedback. It's beyond frustrating when you leave an interview thinking you did great and they thought something different. I would be ok if they didn't like me, but gave me feedback t...

Thank you for the advice, I have used my connections at work as my references. Unfortunately, they don't hire nurses with just an associates degree. I plan on going back after some RN experience.

I was broke from respiratory school and didn't have money to take my boards, so I went back to work as a CNA... totally irrelevant to this convo. So I should keep applying and be patient ...why didn't I think of that?

Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate it.

I am not talking about you in 1994 or international students, I'm talking about me. Sorry that you don't agree that prior experience counts, but I did have one recruiter say they specifically called me because of my prior experience. Please don't ma...

Haha no my resume was fine and if I had things misspelled on this site, well that's fine with me.

The first sentence was "I just passed my RN and I'm searching for a job." So although I didn't specific my past experience, I did not imply I had RN experience. I posted in the first year after licensure thread... anyways ... my references are stella...

I was a nursing assistant and unit secretary.

As stated in my op, I did just pass my nursing boards in the state of Massachusetts. I do not have RN experience, but I do have plenty of experience as a nursing assistant and unit secretary. I am sort of confused with your post too .. didn't make an...

Awesome, good luck ! If you don't mind, do you have your bsn or associates?

I applied and I'm still waiting to hear back. I have my associates, but tons of experience so hopefully I get an interview. Good luck and keep me updated!

I already answered this question. You said you didn't even have quick results in CA, so it doesn't really matter when the 48 hours is up ? So if you did live in a state with quick results, you would get them in 48 hours from when you finished so, Sun...

These questions are a special research section they give to random students. They don't count at all towards your NCLEX score. They are also optional. You can find all of this info on NCSBN.org or the page on Pearson that has all the appointment info...

I took it last Friday and got my results on Sunday. It's 48 hours not business hours.

I was just talking to someone about this the other day. Why are there so many resources? Believe me, I am all for different learning styles and people bring light to some subjects. I am just curious why they are so different? Shouldn't every book or ...

Awww bummer I'm sorry. You will get it next time! I am from MA too and I was going to use tutors, Mary Jane Scott(in person) or The NCLEX tutor(online), I just didn't have the money and ran into car issues. I'm scared about taking it again, I used a...

This is what's wrong with this site. People like you trying to get a reaction out of people like me. You attack someone else so I attack back and I'm the bad guy. All set, you win.

Oh I could say the same about you, you can give it but can't take, huh ? You said because it's been 10 years and you were unsuccessful? What makes her unsuccessful? You literally never said anything about a refresher course in your OP. You gave no ...

Yeah, I'm talking about ArmaniX who literally has pages of comments on this site (lonely) and comes onto a nclex thread after you are already an RN to tell this person that "she doesn't think it's a good idea" (Negative). Concerns are fine, there ar...

I know nurses who have been in the field for 35+ years and are not safe and competent? Where in the original post did they ask you for your opinion. Why are there so many lonely negative nurses on this site, it's really sad.

How was the test ?

They look at the last 60 questions and if they are above the passing line or below. If you go on ncsbn.org they explain everything. Good luck

How was your test ??

This conversation is not even worth getting into, but I never said I bring my own beliefs into my patients care. I said what do you say to them when they bring religion into THEIR care. No one is "spouting" off religions beliefs. Usually you use ther...
