2. Nurse Residency Programs

   TPA_CW_Shelley replied to Leah236's topic in First Year After Licensure

   All Children's in St Pete is already full and apparently they only do the residency once a year. I can tell you, the Tampa Bay area sucks for new grads right now. There isn't a job in sight. I have...

   TPA_CW_Shelley replied to TPA_CW_Shelley's topic in Florida Nursing

6. New grad jobs? Tampa-St Pete area

   TPA_CW_Shelley replied to TPA_CW_Shelley's topic in Florida Nursing

   It's tough out there right now! Just a warning though... I worked for an HCA hospital before, and I wouldn't do it again. They are a nightmare and a liability to your license. I have seen way too much...

10. Cover Letters, Resumes, and Online Applications

    TPA_CW_Shelley replied to MissCharlieRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I have friends in HR who promptly throw away any resume sent without a cover letter. It shows them that you're not interested enough in the position. The cover letter is where you're going to talk...

11. Think i failed with 258 :(

    TPA_CW_Shelley replied to Megan Laura's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I have no idea how often they post... In Florida, it didn't take a week. I checked using the license verification a day or 2 after for my LPN and it was there. Keep checking! Good luck, I know you...

    In Florida (and I would assume pretty much everywhere) you can just go to the board of nursing website and do a 'provider' search. I found out the next day when I took my PN
