I am interviewing for a RN coordinator management position and I am not sure if I should disclose that I'm attending FNP school or even worry about it. I am only taking one class each semester until the fall. The job will be m-f office hours. I don't start clinical until next fall (2017) so I'm not sure whether it is worth mentioning. It would be a dream to stay with the same office when I graduate so this job would be an open door. Is this something to share this early? How would you share and it not affect the chance of getting the job? If I compare working 3 12's to this, it seems more doable. Thamks in advance.

I also work as a state surveyor and enjoy it so far..I went from acute care hospital setting to a LTC surveyor. I travel quite a bit and am away from home 2-3 days per week. I cannot trade however the benefits and different type of stress that I encounter in this job compared to what I previously was doing. It's rewarding in a different type of way!

Thank you for your reply. I applied for a position for a county 1 hr away from home. Is that the county I would have office days in? I am not married nor do I have kids but would enjoy a different change of pace and to get my foot in the door to a maybe better opportunity.

I recently have applied for a State inspector position with my current state. I am finishing up my BSN and will have 12 credit hours to take, all online if I wish. Is this going to be feasible? I know I will be traveling around the state but will I have time to finish up the semester with half-decent grades? Has anyone been in my shoes or been a nurse state inspector? Any opinions or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I used to write down all the notes but because the teachers talked so fast, I missed half of what they said..especially what may or may not be on a certain test! I am using my laptop for a statistics course and I am able to type as fast as they speak..this may different for others but I find it easier to correct my words without having to cross off others and highlight on my document without making a mess! I am a computer nerd though.

If one instructor is keeping you from attending graduation, that is ridiculous. It won't matter after that one day of graduation because the instructor isn't going to follow the graduate to whatever job they may go to and monitor each and every move...No more clinicals! This is one day to shine..letting one person get in the way isn't worth it. For me, I wasn't going to attend for other reasons...I was continuing my education that same fall and knew I had 2 more graduations (bachelor's and grad)- I just felt like this was such a small accomplishment compared to what lies ahead. But everyone is definitely different!

So I have had trouble finding a job where I am at and i finally had the interview that scored me a job..night-shift, part-time..well, I was okay with it but I am currently in a Post-RN BSN option program..so I do go to school during the week..So I accepted it for now.. Well I just got a call from another hospital, the one I had wanted a job with (they only had night-shift full-time open) and they offered me an interview for full-time day shift..which is what I want. I just accepted the job with this hospital a week ago..I like the facility but night shift isn't going to work...It would but I would be hurting and maybe suffering with my grades.. What do i do and how do I tell this hospital if I do decide to accept the offer?

I'm in the Bowling Green area..I have had a terrible time finding a job. I am a brand new RN, with 1 month exp. and 1 year CNA experience..I am starting to worry. I just moved here Saturday but I have been looking since April. I am limited with working because I will be going to school for my bachelor's..and all that's open is night shift..I want to go to grad school. Grades are important to me...I'm almost tempted to just work at a random place. I'm very frustrated.

Found out I just passed..:) So happy.

I really hope you're right..Do you think you can find out over the weekend? (I don't care to pay to find out)

Took my nclex this morning...had 76, not 75 questions..hope all goes well. My stomach is killing me.

Hi, I took my test this morning at 8 am and had 76...yeah, 76 questions..so I'm kinda confused and worried at the same time..why 1 extra? But hope all is well..

I will be attending VUJC for RN nursing this fall. Anyone going there also?
