I'm a new grad and I'm currently working as part time at a nursing home and my hourly pay is 26 plus in lieu of benifit 8.5%, which is less than the ona wage standard. The place I work has ona representive and the collective contract says to pay entr...

ONA's union dues are summarized in the table in this link http://www.ona.org/ona_members/members_faq_and_tutorials/dues_and_membership.html

Thank your for this reply, it's really detailed and now I understand. My representative is so busy I hardly see her, but I'll study the contract first.

Thank you for the reply. I think my problem is I don't understand how union works. Because we are all under the same union and pay same amount of union dues.It's with ONA and ONA has a stander for RN wages, how come their contract doesn't follow the ...

Thank you, I went to 2 places and the reception got my resume, hope it works out~

Thank you! It's good to hear that it is a good agency! I will ask how many hours of work they can give me per week before I sign up then!

Congrats to you !!!

I think they don't really know what's happenning...All we can do is to wait... Nobody I knew from school got the results yet...

Thank you linzz, I'll keep trying~

I did, I'm really interested in LTC, it's my #1 choice acctually. I'm handing out resumes to all the homes that I can find, so far there is only 1 reply:(

Good luck! CNO is so slow..........

Ya, that's the only place I hear back so far. I hope it's a good one. Thank you loriange14. It's tough year for new grads.

Thank you for your input! I do feel a little weird about it. How did you find out tho?

I went to Ryerson, none of my friends got it

OMG, no!!!!!!!!!! I thought I'd get it by next week at least...............Wonder want happend to our results.......

Yep, I'm getting anxiouse, especially when they said give them a call when I'm registered. I want to start working so badly! Good luck to all of us!

I see you all the time~ I feel like I know you already~~lol The position is called private duty, basically they might send me everywhere, nursing home, hospital, home, or clinic. The interview was not what I expected at all, they just said they can't...

I feel the same, that's why I was hoping to get some help from experienced nurses, how to make resume stand out more~~

I think it's the same in other schools, I'm not from Humber, it's the same for me. It's not that bad, cause nursing is different from other programs

Thank you~

By the way, did you get your exam results back yet?

that's encouraging! could you share the web sites that you use to search? Thank you a lot!
