That's so nice of you to share your way of doing your resume, MissMolly! Could I see it, too? I'd like to improve mine and am always grateful for ideas! My email is
I've been wondering about this: I'm currently attending an ADN program in California. My goal is to eventually get my BSN. I read on this forum that new grads unable to find employment within one...
