hi all. When (if) your agency or office is hiring for more nurses, how do you advertise? One of my co-workers is in this huge tiff because we are hiring two new nurses from an ad in Monster.com. She feels that we should have gone through a more "traditional" route in the paper. Now, last time I check that wasn't even a traditional way to hire. Can anyone help me out here? Rosie

ooh, these are all very helpful. I'll save them to my favorites. thanks all. :)

lol... apparently we are all interested but no one has taken the plunge!

well that is way more optimistic than I expected! Thanks for the feedback.

I don't know if its the same company but I've used door to door storage for something similar.

hi. I'm thinking about switching over to phsyciatric nursing. I was always fascinated with the mental health field and it seems like it could work out ot be a life long interest. But I'm concerned about burn out and personal safety. Can anyone share their experiences with me?

I've definitely come across a few places that do that. They feel like they suddenly have a great excuse to cut corners and overwork their own staff. Not a very good long term plan, though. I just want to shake this one manager and yell at him "if you think there's a shortage now, just you wait until I get tired of your sh*t!" I'm suspicious of any place that does not seem to be actively looking to hire more if they are short. My office recently put an ad in Monster.com and we're getting some strong resumes flowing in!

oh wow. You all have my sympathies. I have the ocassional migraine but they aren't too debilitating. Typically I just need to go into a dark room and sleep if I can. Sometimes I think I should get one of those sensory deprivation tanks.

has anyone ever sold on eBay before? I think about it but then get discouraged by having to pack my stuff up to mail.

does anyone here take part in the hiring for their office/department? Maybe that would be helpful for tips. A friend of mine in Texas hires for her agency and she says Monster.com gives her the best resumes.

where do ya'll post your job listings? We're looking to bring in more people to work here and we'd like to extend the reach beyond industry specific sites. I think Monster.com would be a good start. Does anyone have experience with this?

ugh, how obnoxious. I've been getting spam on my cell phone. I didn't even know that my phone could receive text messages until some ephedra jerks sent me three in a row!

congrats on the new position! I hope it works out well and you're very happy. Out of curiosity, where did you hear about it?
