  2. Why can't I get a job as a New RN Grad?

    JeanettePNP replied to butterfly_RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi, I could have written your post. I know how hard it is to hear that others have found jobs and you're not even getting calls. I try to remind myself not to compare myself to others; they have...

  3. what do you want to be when you grow up?

    JeanettePNP replied to Mrs. Sparkle Pants's topic in General Nursing

    I had a lot of big ideas for what I was going to do when I got out of nursing school, but at this point I'll settle for whatever job I can get. Acute care NP sounds good as a career goal, but first...

    JeanettePNP replied to NurseDaddy2006's topic in Psychiatric

    Who are the ones who said originally that you are not supposed to do any direct patient care? Who are the ones now saying they want you to do IM injections? If it's the same people, I think they have...

  9. Jobs not being advertised?

    JeanettePNP replied to ConsideringNursing79's topic in General Nursing

    Many job openings are not listed, and many listed jobs are not really open--they may have been filled long ago and were never taken down. Some places put up a "catch-all" category for the new grads...

    JeanettePNP replied to lalie28's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As long as you don't have a huge chip on your shoulder about hospital birth you should be fine. The hospital's birthing philosophy may not perfectly match your own, but you're an employee of the...

  15. are people seeing movement in the nsg job market?

    JeanettePNP replied to hbgwan's topic in General Nursing

    To be honest, I think the fixation on new grad residencies/fellowships kept me from some promising opportunities in hospitals that were hiring new grads but not advertising the positions as...

  18. Unemployed? Student Loans? At least you didn't go to LAW SCHOOL

    JeanettePNP posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    For Law School Graduates, Debts if Not Job Offers - NYTimes.com I have to say though that I have little sympathy for the guy featured in the article. He didn't only take out loans to pay tuition. He...

    JeanettePNP posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    "We'll start interviewing at the end of this month" -- yeah, for positions that you've filled already. "We're not hiring new grads" -- except for the ones you just hired. "We are sorry but you don't...

  22. What would you like more training on?

    JeanettePNP replied to HayleyHunter's topic in General Students

    In my school they didn't teach it at all. One day I came in on my own time for an optional IV workshop and it was only about hanging IV's, not starting them. We were asking the instructor questions...

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There has already been a sharp uptick in for-profit nursing schools opening up. There were 9000 more new RNs licensed in 2009 compared to 2008. (I don't see the stats for 2010 yet.) I assumed as you...
