I have a question that hopefully somebody could help me with, I was offered a position last Monday for a new grad ER position. The nurse manager said that she was going to forward my paperwork to HR, and somebody should be contacting me next week, to...

Hi All and Good Morning I had my first RN job interview yesterday. During the interview the nurse manager asked "If I were to call your previous employer what would he tell me about you?" I answered that question to the best of my ability, honestly ...

Thank you. I thought that was a good question to ask as well, and I'm glad she did. Because when I was filling out the application I made sure all my phone numbers and references were up to date, and I if she wouldn't have asked that question, I pr...

Thank you for responding to my post. I found out yesterday I got the job!!! I am so excited (and nervous) about being a ER nurse. I just wanted to make sure I was on the right track, evidently I was

Hi All :wink2: I was wondering if anybody could offer a new grad some advice about interviewing with an ED? Or just some overall advice in general about interviewing. This is my very FIRST interview for a RN position. I do already possess my ACLS an...

Got the call today offering me the ER position. I am so excited the wait was less than I thought it was going to be. I am very excited, should be starting in about 2 weeks.

Hi everybody! Well, the torturous waiting is over. I got the call this morning and was offered the position in the ER. I am estatic about this and nervous, I just want to do my best.

I had my interview in the ER yesterday. I think I did ok, not sure. Does anybody else feel like they blew it with their interviews? The manager asked me basic questions like, why do you want to work at our hospital? what can you offer us, why should...

Today I had my very first interview as a RN. It was in the ER. Does anybody else feel like they blew it on their interviews? Never at any time did I think I had it in the bag (HA!) During the interview the director conducting it would talk to me as...

Good luck with your ICU interview tomorrow!! I worked in an ICU for 6 yrs as a secretary/tech. I loved working there, you see alot and learn alot. It's easy to practice in the mirror, but when you are faced with somebody deciding your fate, you feel ...

I am so trying to keep positive. Thank you for your kinds words. I just finished writing my thank you note so she'll get it either Thurs or Friday. I hope I get the job too. ER is where my heart is at.

Thank you for your advice. It just makes me feel better to hear others experiences. If I can personally prevent myself walking into a blind situation without doing research and asking questions, I do! I do have some knowledge of ER work, clearly fro...

How did your interview go? I have an ED interview on Tues.

Any other new grads having trouble finding jobs?? I live in the palm springs/ San Bernardino area? Anybody know of hospital hiring new grads in this area? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

thank you very much for your help :)

I didn't know where to begin. I couldn't find a place to post a new post with my topic, which also involves a child. So forgive me please if I am in the wrong area. I am a RN and I have a step daughter that has talked to me in great detail about her...

Hello, I am a new grad and a civilian. I live in a military town in CA and would like to work close to home considering the military base is only 5 miles away from my front door. I was wondering if anybody could give me any advice on a civilian RN ...

Just a question. Anybody who took the NCLEX in CA, what was your average wait time for your results? Did you all check the CA BON everyday? Or wait for something in the mail? If you did either of those things how long was your wait...just curious. I ...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

I was like you. I was worried after a week. So I called the CA BON to find out if my file was complete, and to my amazement it wasn't!!! They didn't have my transcripts. When I knew they were sent when I graduated, but they didn't have them....long s...

Good luck to you. Listen to the little voice in your head and heart if you feel ready to take the test on the 20th. If you have any doubts, reschedule it. How I studied was doing practice questions over and over again. I used the NCLEX-RN 3500 CD ...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Good luck to you in the area you work in

I got between 15 and 20 SATA, and ONE med calculation. It was torture. Good luck to all you still waiting for results. :redbeathe
