What area of nursing are you in? ICU/medsurg? Frisco is a great place to raise a family. We moved from new York 5 years ago and settled in McKinney. I work in Dallas at Medical City. I work day shift, so traffic is not bad at 6 in the morning. Pay...
Hello, I live in Mckinney and love it!! I am also from Southern California myself (Gardena/Torrance). Anywhoo, there is a major shortage of critical care nurses in the area, so you do have a shot of getting a decent pay. Maybe around 35? My advice to...
Helli mikie1317, I just applied to every new grad program in the dfw area, and just prayed. I was so lucky to get in my position. Just have a good resume. From my experience, they are not looking for ACLS, you can always get that when u r employed....
Sugarland is a nice place to live. Frisco is very nice also. It is right next door to us here in Plano. I would say that Sugarland is more diverse, but they are pretty much the same. If you end up in Sugarland, there is one school, I can't think ...
Have you visited both cities yet? I would second a previous post and say find a job then find a house/apt closeby. Traffic in both cities suck. I live in Plano, which is the north dallas area. I really like it here, but it is on the tad bit expensi...

I am actually in your situation right now. I graduated may 2011. Took a break from getting my license, because I got married a couple months after and had to move from ny to nj into my hubby's house. After I finally got my license, I had no luck in n...
Just got an email from hr. She said everything is processed and asked when I can come in. Im gonna go on thursday since I have to work tom. I would email her to check. She never answers her phone.
Im really looking forward to meeting you guys!! Does anyone know how the internship is after orientation? Is the schedule still M-F? How long is the background check phase? Im getting so antsy!!
Hey there!! I have been trying to message you too and it wasnt going through. I did not know that was the reason why. It just says error when I sending the private message from my phone. Im going to clear my messages and pm you;)
I got an offer for their PCU internship starting on the 22nd. Im in the background check phase. I am very excited! My husband and I moved to Dallas in May and have been trying to get in their internship since then. I am working as a nurse at a drug r...
Hi all! I just wanted to see if anyone was contacted from Parkland about their residencies yet. I applied earlier in March, and called yesterday and they said that my app was sent off to the hiring manager, and if I meet their qualifications, they w...
Hi Inori, I just moved from the NY area also. Graduated from Pace last year. I moved to Dallas because of my husbands job transfer in May. Dallas is nice, its not NY, but its nice. So, the job search has been ok... You just have to REALLY hustle!! I ...
If your ideal location is Houston, then I would try there first. You might be lucky. I know a lot of people who snagged internships there, and most had their ADN. To be honest, it is just pure luck. If that fails, then apply to the hospitals in smal...
Thanks for bringing UT Southwestern to my attention. I just got asked to interview there. I am praying that I get the opportunity to work there. With it being a big academic and research center, it is more my speed. Thanks again Tammy1019!!
Hello all;) I am relocating to Dallas in two weeks (ahhh!!!). So I have been on the job hunt for about a month now. I interviewed at Parkland for the ER nurse residency already, but havent heard anything yet. I applied to medical city, and wanted to...
You can still apply to internships even though you graduated last year. I have experience in research nursing and graduated last may like you. I just relocated here because of my husbands job transfer. I have been applying to internships, only had 1 ...
Well you know the market in NYC sucks big time!!! But a alot have got help upstate, either White Plains, Lawrence, and a hospitals in Creekskill/Hudson area. I started getting interviews at Trinitas, East Orange, and Hackensack in New Jersey, but de...
