Hello. I have been an RN for a year and 8 months now and am really looking to leave med/surg. I have a love hate relationship with this specialty. Some days are good and most days are so bad. I think that I have been better at handling bad days now compared to when I was a new grad. I have seen multiple threads of people talking about corrections nursing. They either love it or hate it, no in between. I know that adjusting to a slow, outdated system will be a huge annoyance to me. Old equipment will be another thing to adjust to. I will have to go through another orientation and probably feel like a new grad all over again. Just wondering if I should take the risk and leave MedSurg? I am in the state of Oregon, and will be going into a men's max security state prison

I think that's a good sign! I heard when your candidate portal is gone, it means you got the job. They basically make you "reapply" so they can put your application as an official employee. goodluck!

Still the same status. They scheduled me for an interview on the 23rd at 12pm. I showed up and they said all interviews were canceled because joint commission was there. They said they forgot to notify some interviewees. They called me today and rescheduled me for an interview on the 29th at 11am but I'm not available that day, and they said there's no other appointments open. So I'm automatically out of the list.

Hi, yes I have. It just says it's still being reviewed. What's your status? Have you gotten a call back?

Hi everyone! Just wondering if any of you heard back from PVHMC for Sept 2024's cohort? I applied to Tele and still haven't gotten a call back.

I think the base and avg hourly pay are the same if you work the full 12 hours. So yeah, we technically are on the base pay (43.90). But they pay overtime (x1.5) after 8 hours so an average pay is 51.22 for dayshift. For night shift, avg pay is 56.22 if you work the full 12hrs.

I was offered a position in Med/Surg unit. Here's the details for their pay: Base rate: $43.90 x 8 hours = 351.20 Overtime rate: 65.85 x 4 hours = 263.40 Avg. total pay per day = 614.60 Avg. hourly pay = $51.22 Night Shift Differential: $5.00 Avg. hourly pay with night shift Differential: $56.22

How exciting! Congratulations! The person who did my interview said they're still calling people back until Friday to set up an interview!

I just did my interview for the medical/surgical unit. Here's the questions they asked: - tell me about yourself - weaknesses and strengths - which subject did you excel in nursing school and what made you do so well in it - conflict with a coworker/customer and how did you manage it? - a time you disagreed with a new rule/policy and how did you handle it

hi! did you end up passing the NCLEX just with boardvitals?

They called me today to confirm when I'm taking the NCLEX (I don't have a license yet). I told them I'll be taking it next week and the person on the phone said she'll still consider me for an interview. She did say that technically we're supposed to have a license by application date but since I'm taking it soon, they'll still consider it. They said they'll start calling people for interviews once the application closes and interviews will be on the first two weeks of July. All interviews are online (Microsoft Teams). Goodluck everyone! It's been hard to get a new grad job.

I ended up just adding it to the attachments part!

How exciting! Congratulations!

Hi I think that's still a good sign because I have a friend who wasn't in the bucket for Adults ICU but she still got an interview offer! She was also "under consideration" goodluck to us

Hi, I didn't get a rejection email and I'm still in the bucket for interviews. No updates since then!
