    I can't get a job

    itsnowornever replied to kiki4885's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Because you don't. None of us do. Apply to HUnDREDS of jobs and start volunteering, do something to set yourself apart from the crowd. Perhaps go back for your BSN? But keep

    itsnowornever replied to andywolfe's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Are people less likely to congratulate older or younger students for getting into RN?

    itsnowornever replied to Kadambari's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My mom flat out told me "You aren't going to make it. School is easy for you, but you aren't cut out to be a nurse". Needless to say we have relationship problems and I haven't talked to her since....

    Once you are a nurse, do you get to choose where you want to work?

    itsnowornever replied to jazon77's topic in General Nursing

    Bottom line answer to your question, you put in your dues and do your time wherever you get hired and then TRY to move where you want. Landing your dream job out of the gate is RARE! If you want a...

    What is a good NCLEX-RN book to get during nursing school?

    itsnowornever replied to firefly101's topic in General Students

    It didn't help me at all, infact, it got me thinking way too deep! However, our school was based off of ATI so I had those resources to practice off of and our test questions were very similar to ATI...

    itsnowornever replied to rocksteady1's topic in General Students

    What is a good NCLEX-RN book to get during nursing school?

    itsnowornever replied to firefly101's topic in General Students

    I personally wouldn't touch an NCLEX book until it's NCLEX time. Read your course books, do the questions in there and take your tests. The last thing you need is a rationale that is different than a...
