    Certified Nursing Assistant's in Canada?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to FutureNurse23's topic in International Nursing

    Not that I heard of or experienced any grievances. This is not my place of employment, this is actually where I volunteer (and how I came to realization that I want to become a nurse). The volunteers...

    The waiting game..

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to PediLove2147's topic in General Nursing

    I am playing 2 waiting games at the same time right now. I had to postpone my BScN studies, because I had my son 5 months ago, and so I had to reapply since I was a first year student. Now I am...

    How to describe burnout professionally during interviews?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to Up2nogood RN's topic in General Nursing

    Don't mention the "burned out" phrase at all. It seems that you are not challenged enough on your current floor, so say that you feel that your current work is not challenging enough for you, and that...

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to JustaNrsgStudent's topic in General Students

    And that is exactly the reason, why for my second pregnancy (first ended in miscarriage unfortunately) I went to midwife's office, and not to an obstetrician. I like asking

    Email follow-up letter after interview

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to editor2rn's topic in General Nursing

    And people, of course I am talking about an EMAIL. We are in 21st century here. I think I didn't send anyone regular mail in the last 10 years.

    Email follow-up letter after interview

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to editor2rn's topic in General Nursing

    No big deal. Email the thank you to either the lead person there or to HR and ask to forward this email to the rest of the interviewing team that you spoke to. Or, if you read my message before the...

    Choosing a second bachelor's degree

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to allimaddionah's topic in General Nursing

    Here is a list of interesting (in my opinion) minors that are offered where I hope to continue my BScN: disability studies, ASL, occupational health and safety, criminal justice, organizational...

    Pregnant nursing student! What do I do?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to bellanurse30's topic in General Nursing

    All I can say is CONGRATULATIONS! :) I found out that I was pregnant in my first year of nursing school, so I had to postpone my studies, I am resuming them in the upcoming September. You are going to...

    Planning to have a baby.. new nurse

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to Meese.C's topic in General Nursing

    It is hard to find a job while pregnant. I went to a few interviews when I was pregnant with DS, and suddenly after stellar phone interview, when they saw me in person the position was "no longer...

    Disappointing news, what can I do?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to WannabeNurse(:'s topic in General Nursing

    Good thinking! I started my first job when I was 15 (I wanted to know whether I want to be a teacher, so I found a job at summer school as a tutor). See if you can find a sitter volunteer position in...

    What if a hurricane hit your facility while you were there?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to tiroka03's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, the notion of a hurricane scares me senseless. Of all the places where I lived, I have never lived in a hurricane active zone, so to me it is an unimaginable catastrophe that I have read...

    Never thought I'd have this problem: which job to choose?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to formerbrat's topic in General Nursing

    If it were me, I would take job A, because of range of things you are going to do in the ER. Also, I think that ER looks great on the resume (unless you decided that you want to do NICU for many years...

    Any nurses out there willing to be interviewed?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to ChooSoul's topic in General Nursing

    No one (unless s/he is a VERY good friend or family member of the OP, and has no issues with that type of questions) will answer the salary question in real time, so asking questions on a forum maybe...

    Any advice for phone "interview"?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to agldragonRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    It IS an actual interview. It is as actual as it gets, and the questions are likely to be exactly the same that you are going to be asked in face-to-face interview. I have had plenty of these in my...

    How Do I transfer from OR to ICU nursing?

    futureRN_Anastasia replied to lawandaluxnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I am not in ICU nursing, but I recently spoke with a friend of mine who is, and I was asking him how he got in. He told me that once you have at least 1 year of med/surg you can apply to a post-rn...
