  1. Matching with the new residency-like program for NPs Have you heard of MidlevelU's new residency-like program for nurse practitioners? Midlevels for the Medically Underserved (MMU) matches participating NPs with clinics and hospitals across the count...
  2. I don't even know where to start, to be honest. So I will just ramble (bear with me). So I was laid off 3.5 months ago from an NP job that I enjoyed, due to budget cuts. At that time, i wasn't too devastated because I always kept my agency ICU RN gig...
  3. Needing encouragement: I think I regret being an FNP

    Thank you guys for your comments . At this time, I am backing off on looking for FNP work at the moment, for my mental health. Now I job search for an hour or so, 2 times a week, as opposed to all day, every day. I had an interview last week and it...

    Thank you!
  5. Needing encouragement: I think I regret being an FNP

    Yes, had I known what I know now, I would have used my critical care experience to do the ACNP track immediately. Because I know there are more jobs that aren't this ridiculous. And after being laid off, I am realizing that RNs seem to have way more...
  6. I just came back from taking the NCLEX... OMG I want to cry. The computer stopped at 165 questions and I got soooo many random questions, drugs i've never seen before, etc. (I was expecting those....still felt like I didn't do well, but I expected th...
  7. Salary!?

    I am in Houston, Texas
  8. Salary!?

    Hello! i know a couple of people who are doing Psych and they have said that they will look into asking for $110-125k as a new grad Psych NP with no experience.
  9. Hey guys, so I was FINALLY offered a job!!!! I'm so happy. Need your insight in making sure it's a good decision. These are the details: Pros: Salaried position (I'm not sure if it's a pro or con) Starting Salary $105,000 (I initially asked for $10...
  10. New Grad finally got a job offer!!!! What do you think of the details?

    I will say that i did turn down a $116,000 job offer as well (after i signed with this job). I was considering it, but it was more of a traditional clinic with high volume patients. i decided the extra $ wasnt worth the stress.
  11. New Grad finally got a job offer!!!! What do you think of the details?

    what is your specialty? where are you located? $110k is NOT "low" for a new grad NP anywhere, IMO.
  12. Hey guys, like many new grad FNPs out there, I have been looking for a job for quite some time now. Maybe it's just me being frustrated, but it seems like so quite a few of the smaller clinics that are hiring are really shady. Some examples are: 1) a...
  13. Student Loan Debt

    I put myself through school for my BSN and FNP degree and graduated from both debt free. Let's just say i worked ALL through school and Took no spring break trips. Went to an affordable BSN state school out of town, and went to a state school for FNP...
  14. Salary!?

    Oh, and I did turn down a FNP job where I was offered $116,000. Turned it down because it required more local travel than I cared for. So plenty of NPs are making decent pay (at least in the Houston area)
  15. Salary!?

    i would make approx 85k working four 12 hour shifts as an angency ICU nurse. BUT I just graduated FNP school in the Houston area and was just offered a 40 hour job starting at $105,000. Working less hours for more $ works for me!
  16. Any Wise Way to Spend Education Assistance Money (not CME money)?

    I dont know about you, but i am into learning hands on skills and procedures. (Stuff that werent focused on in school). I took a trip to PA for a big skills only workshop. It was awesome!!!!
  17. New Grad finally got a job offer!!!! What do you think of the details?

    So true. Im sure i can suck it up haha. Im just feeling grateful for having a decent new grad offer.

  21. New Grad finally got a job offer!!!! What do you think of the details?

    I am ALL about flex time too!!!! I have no kids. Im not ready for kids for at least 2 more years. I LOVE having days off during the week. It keeps me sane haha. But i already signed the official offer yeaterday... Is it too late to negotiate it at th...
  22. New Grad finally got a job offer!!!! What do you think of the details?

    Thanks guys. what do you think about taking this job, and volunteering my time at a free family practice clinic once a month. That way, i can still have SOME experience in kids, etc. This Job is a neuro/family practice gig
  23. The lesser of 2 annoyances

    I say B. I'd rather be close to my family and have hubby have great job opportunities as well.
  24. New offers..

    Ive ridden in public transport and i had a decent time. Any way you can save $ on gas and car maintenance is great. As far as the other offers, im in your same position. I will still go on a couple more interviews and see how i feel. And you could ev...
