  1. ]Hi everyone, So, I have been reading the countless threads on the new grad situation down in Houston, and being a new grad and basically planning to uprooting my life from Masssachusetts to Houston in a little less than 3 months I am truly starting ...
  2. New grad relocating to Houston ... is it THAT bad out there?

    Hi girls, I received my new grad internship at St. Catherine's Hospital in Katy. I applied to pretty much everywhere in Houston -- all of the Mem Hermanns, Methodist, St. C's, St. Joseph, St. Lukes, even rehab places too like Triumph and Select Speci...
  3. Just wondering if there were any fellow nurses out there who will be starting the new grad internship at St. Catherines in June?? I will be working in CCU, and sounds like I start June 13th. Just wanted to talk to people about it since I will be movi...
  4. New grad relocating to Houston ... is it THAT bad out there?

    Kate, I honestly think your best bet would be to apply to new grad programs. The new grad program I got into hired 13 of us, and only 2 or 3 of us had our BSN's. You will more than likely not get hired if you do not apply to a new grad program down h...

    Hi ya'll, So, can anyone tell me ANYTHING about Christus St. Catherine's new grad program in Katy?! Got what looks like a secondary application and maybe even an interview there ((crossing fingers)), but can't seem to find anything on the message boa...
  6. Anyone accepted to Christus St. Catherine Internship in Katy?

    Well, we don't start until this coming Monday so we will let you know as time goes on! I already have my license (which apparently is the rarity here when you enter a new grad program - therefore, I make $26/hr base and then $4 for nights. New grads ...

  10. New RN, New to Houston, and No Job

    I will be working nights too, so I am definitely in the same boat as you. I worked nights as a tech a few years ago and hated it, lol, but I am hoping that since it's only 3 days on it won't be so bad (and the money is nice too!) I will be living at ...

    Trill, I would TOTALLY call back again. I'd wait until this Friday and then call him back. By no means would I wait until the end of May ... that's still 4 weeks out!

  13. Christus St. Catherine New Grad Program 2011

    Shiny, I think you have mostly everything - however, if I remember correctly (I tend to get all the different applications mixed up though so tell me if I'm wrong!) after I sent in the initial application, they emailed me to fill out a secondary appl...

    Ahh that's awesome!!! I just got offered a position for the CCU at St. Catherines in Katy that I'm thrilled about too! What type of floor will you be working on? I will be living downtown Houston so I was hoping to work in TMC myself, but I would dri...
  16. New RN, New to Houston, and No Job

    Liss, I know this was a thread from awhile ago, but did you ever end up getting a job in Houston??
  17. Christus St. Catherine New Grad Program 2011

    Oh man that's awesome about the relocation expenses!!! How'd you find that out? I should ask. I found out today from Tia that I need to be there earlier than June 13th to get all of my stuff done too like paperwork and whatnot. Soooo I'm now moving t...
  18. Christus St. Catherine New Grad Program 2011

    I know!!! I start June 13th.. I would much rather stress about moving than not having a job =)
  19. Christus St. Catherine New Grad Program 2011

    Well Austin is apparently incredible, so it's good that it's only an hour away!! We're about 30 minutes from Katy ... it's quite a drive for me, but our lease is until November, so we're going to look at our options. We may buy a townhouse in Katy or...
  20. Christus St. Catherine New Grad Program 2011

    Where is the apartment that you chose? Dallas, right? My boyfriend and I chose an apartment before he started his job here in November, so we already have the place and settled. I just need to move my stuff in, which is going to be a challenge, lol! ...

    Okay, now it's my turn... I JUST GOT OFFERED THE CARDIAC ICU JOB AT ST. CATHERINES!!!!! I am beyond thrilled... Tia Shorty must think I'm legitimately crazy because I was hysterical on the phone lol. Funny thing is, I'm here in Houston for my 2nd Met...
  24. Houston GN Residencies

    Haha thanks for the vote of confidence!!! I luckily have a boyfriend of 4 years (3 of whic has been long distance, hence why I'm moving to Houston) who works in anesthesia so he makes good money and has been paying for me to do this the past couple t...
