  3. Where do you find new grad nursing jobs in VA?????

    Cilantrophobe replied to LoveNursing4ever's topic in Virginia Nursing

    As far as getting the names of people to talk to in HR, all you have to do is call the hospital and ask for the number for nurse recruitment. But like I said, I did all that and it got me nowhere. I...

    Cilantrophobe replied to LoveNursing4ever's topic in Virginia Nursing

  8. How long for VA NCLEX results?

    Cilantrophobe replied to 2bTraumaRN2008's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I have the same question. How long was it for you? According to the PVT I passed, but it shut off at 75 and I feel like I failed. And I'm not just being dramatic, that test was

  9. Hurst Q-review questions

    Cilantrophobe replied to LMICHEL,RN2B's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm so glad I found this thread! I'm taking the NCLEX in the morning and have gotten the following scores on Q Review : 81, 81, 73, 93. But like the OP said, I have no idea how to quantify my scores....

  12. What am I doing wrong?!

    Cilantrophobe posted a topic in Nursing Career

    I have so many questions. How exactly does the hiring process work? Who's in charge? What is a "hiring manager"? I just graduated nursing school (ASN), plan to take the NCLEX ASAP. I have zero...

    Cilantrophobe replied to mameez's topic in Virginia Nursing

  16. Making contact with PCD

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in General Nursing

    I have applied to 4 jobs. I just don't want to rely solely on HR to get hired. From what I understand, the PCD has just as much, if not more power over the hiring process. I will apply no matter what,...

  17. Graduate Nurse with Associate's Degree

    Cilantrophobe replied to adnKY's topic in General Nursing

    ChristineN, I think you're going way overboard. I have done quite a bit of my clinical rotations at Inova Fairfax and well as one rotation at Fair Oaks and have talked to and/or seen several ADN...

  18. GUH New Grad Program Summer 2011

    Cilantrophobe replied to RNRNRN1234's topic in General Nursing

    Well that's kind of reassuring. I was bummed out that I hadn't heard back but it sounds like there's still a chance! Signing a 2-year commitment is perfectly fine with me! Just getting a job at such a...

  20. Georgetown University Hospital - What's it like?

    Cilantrophobe replied to IGiveTheShots's topic in General Nursing

    Hi everyone, I am on track to graduate in May and want to know, what is the best approach to looking for a job as a new grad (ADN)? I've been working on my resume and want to start applying within the...

  22. Where to start?

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Nursing Career

    That might be a good route to take. I called several HR offices today and got the same answers over and over. There either weren't any positions available and to 'keep looking online', OR I needed to...

  23. Where to start?

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Nursing Career
