Good advice! I really need to go over how to interview and all that too. I felt like when I originally got my position in LA it was so laid back and casual and I guess I don't know what to expect with...

I love columbus too! I just moved here a month ago and I am originally from a small town in Ohio right outside Pittsburgh and I went to school in Kent so I've experience Cleveland and I feel like Cbus...

Anyone have any insight on how to get a job at Riverside as a new grad? I have applied online multiple times and I feel it is now time to just walk in there and demand/beg for a job (whatever it...

I have a lot of hope that I will get a job somehow. I mean even if CBus is saturated with nurses, apparently nurses are retiring earlier now and if they know what is best they will have plenty of...

What unit are you on? I really enjoyed working with children but the children's hospital in columbus kept reminding me they are not hiring new grads anytime soon. Other than that, I guess I can work...

Hey! Well so far online I have heard NOTHING. I did just pass my NClex so got that sucker out of the way and next week I plan on getting a copy of my degree and the fact that I am a registered nurse...

Bummer! Well I take my test tomorrow and when I pass I am just going to go to hospitals and demand a job. I don't want to work in a nursing home either sorry about your experience. I would rather...

I am trying to work at Nationwide for their pediatrics but if I don't get in (they said i could take up to 6 months to hire another new graduate), then I was really interested in Riverside. I have...

Good luck! I know working and going to nursing school school was rough for me...I can't imagine having kids too! But I always had a role model and that was my mother. She raised 5 kids then decided to...
That site I think is even better than the Kaplan course website I paid $400 for. I've been looking for something like this since my Kaplan course ended in August and I still haven't taken my test yet....
This reminds me of my Practicum my senior year. I felt like I really got along with her the first day and of course didn't know everything on the level that a nurse would, so she ended up telling my...
Even though I haven't even started working as a nurse yet, I know this would be a thread I will start in the near future haha. I told myself I will go to any limit to make sure I do not make a...
I love all this great advice! I haven't started a job yet as a nurse, but I am somewhat slow to find one and I will admit, I am nervous. I have a lot of confidence in myself, but when people doubt me...
I wish I was already an RN by now. I am freaking out because I have to pass my NClex by August 8 in order to move to California and start the residency program September 8. I think for that reason I...
I really had a hard time adjusting in clinicals my first time, but now that I am a senior, I have really stepped into being a true caretaker of my patient(s). First of all, don't be overwhelmed....
Really? Wow I guess I shoulda researched that one a little more. I think as nursing students my friends and I are so used to having to pass every test with a 70% to pass every class. Thanks for the...
Hey! First of all, congratulations! I am graduating in May and I basically have to pass it the first time in order to start my orientation on time. How did you study? Any pointers? I just took a mock...
