    Amburgerz12 replied to bubbly_nurse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I gradated in May 2010, passed my boards in August and got a position in September at a SNF. I have found the biggest thing is to network and you actually have to go in to the places, not just apply...

    Amburgerz12 replied to ERTiger's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I remember that day, they had us buy all our books at once... it was just a little over a 1000 dollars and then you have to buy the lab bag too. You'd think they'd at least make the bag cute or...

    Amburgerz12 replied to Amburgerz12's topic in Arizona Nursing
