Hi everyone I am torn between an OR new grad residency and a new grad Pediatric Float Pool at a Children’s Hospital. Both are great opportunities and the float/rotating schedule of the pediatric job make me unsure / I am interested but don’t have a ton of experience from school in the OR to know I truly love it.

Hi guys! I am stuck between an offer for BIDMC OR residency program and Tufts Children's float pool and PICU positions. Can anyone give me insight on the hospital and the OR specialty? I had never considered it mainly since I didn’t get a clinical rotation there in nursing school but I find it interesting the more I research.

Hi! I am torn between getting my RN license in CA and then applying for reciprocity in Massachusetts where I am set to move in the next couple months. The reciprocacy/ ATT process is very quick in MA from what I hear and I am planning on moving back to CA in 2-3 years, but never know how I will like moving to a new city. There is a small possibility I end up staying in CA and not making the move if the job opportunities available in MA aren't in line with what I'm looking for as a new grad RN. Can anyone explain this process and maybe steer me? If I was to get my license in CA and get reciprocacy in MA would my license technically be valid in both states? Thanks so much for your time reading this!!

Hi there! I am just waiting for my ATT to test for my NCLEX. I have been looking for jobs but haven't been seeing too many opportunities for new grad RN positions. I applied to Mass General's transition to practice program but have not heard back. Anyone have advice on great hospitals to work at as a new grad? I am totally OK taking a job as a nursing assistant in a hospital I want to be at and work my way up as well. Thank you so much.

Hi Everyone, I am needing some advice from the nursing family over in Mass! I am moving to Boston to join my boyfriend after I graduate from my BSN program in a few weeks. Our plan is to be there for 3-5 years and eventually move back to California to raise a family (unless we absolutely fall in love) which very well may happen ? I am deciding whether it will be better to apply for my nursing license through Massachusetts BRN or if it would be better to test here in California then transfer my license once I arrive in Boston. Has anyone gone through a similar process or familiar with how long it takes to test in Massachusetts and/or how long the process of reciprocity takes? The goal is to be able to be able get my license and quickly to be able to start working, but also allow me to come back to California without a complicated process. Thank you SO much for taking the time to read this and offer your thoughts.

Congratulations on your new position!! I am in the process of moving to BOS from California and my dream is to work at Boston Children’s. I would love to hear any insight or advice you’d be willing to share ❤️
