As a new nurse, I applied to the large hospitals first, got one interview but no offer. On my second round, I included small, rural hospitals as well. Got an interview at a 20 bed ER, gave it my best and got an offer a few days later. The small hospi...

Interviewed for a minimum security rehab facility last week. I mostly got general behavioral questions, and they went right down a little questionnaire packet. What would you do if you overheard two employees gossiping? How would you handle conflict ...

Pharm-Lots of rote memorization but not too hard. Med-Surg-I find most of it interesting so it's not too hard to remember. Psych-Hated it! Ack! The therapeutic nurse-client relationship almost drove me bananas.
I submitted a DO mid-December 2008 and I received my response the first of February 2009. Mine was a misdemeanor committed when I was 17 (now 25). Hope this helps.
I faced this very same dilemma! I chose to go the ADN route so I could leave school with about 8000 in student loans. In this area the hospitals have very good tuition reimbursement and Im applying now for extern positions so that I won't have to tak...

Did you join your school's Student Nurses Association? Here the membership is 45$ a year and it automatically enrolls you in the National SNA from whom you can purchase discounted health insurance by UnitedHealthcare.
In my class of 55 only 4 people have A's. There were 5 of us but the Fund. HESI knocked one down to a B. About 20 people have B's and the rest are C's and F's. A lot of girls came out of pre reqs with 4.0s and had trouble adjusting to the viewpoint t...
I've got the Fundamentals final Monday and the Pharm final the Monday after Thanksgiving but then I'll be done with my first semester too. It wasn't that bad for me just soooo time consuming. I learn pretty easily and have experience as a PCT and EMT...
