Thank you both!

Hello lovely RNs, APRNs, CRNAs.. Whoever is out there. I'm writing on a much discussed topic: finding a preceptor for a distance NP program in which the school bears none of the responsibility of helping find one for you. :) I began my search months ...

Yes, intensivist. I literally just moved to Nashville today from CT. I got a job in the Vanderbilt MICU, I start on Monday. Crazy life changes. So exciting. Congrats to everyone again!!

Waiting to hear back about a job you really want is... THE WORST. That is all.

So freakin happy!!!!!!!!!

Accepted!! Congrats everyone! See you all in a few short months!

I interviewed today for a position in the Vanderbilt University Med Ctr MICU - a job I am really, really, really, really hoping to land. The interview went well (I think.) At the end of the interview, the Nurse Manager said that as part of the 'Share...

Ugh is right. I'm reallllly over this whole waiting thing. It's time to know.

I haven't heard anything. I called admissions about a week ago and asked when we can expect decisions to be mailed and she said "by the end of February."

I got the same email!!!

Hello fellow nurses! Soooo.. I am preparing to apply to Vanderbilt University's dual CNM/FNP program for Fall 2014 and wanted to start a thread rather than searching for info on here. I've been studying for the GRE cause I haven't taken it yet - plan...

Got the job! So happy! Thanks for everyone's input!

Exactly. I agree "waiting for a job is very minute compared to life." My original post was in jest. Did people think I actually thought that it was the worst thing ever? Lol..

many of you took this post a little too literally. anyhoo, still waiting. thumbs down.

Oh this is on the floor btw, not icu

Our policy is baseline vitals, q15 vitals and vitals after administration is complete. We don't have to stay with the pt and the pt is not required to be on telemetry.

The wait is killing me too. I keep second guessing everything. Having no ICU experience at all can't help the chances of my admission, although I just had a couple interviews for ICU positions that went very well so I'm hoping I'll land one and be ab...

Has anyone scheduled an interview or heard back from admissions about anything at all? The waiting is no fun.

Oh my.. You all have some great points! Well, I am still waiting. I got an encouraging email from the nurse manager saying that they are "very interested" in me, but have several other interviews this coming week and so won't be able to let me know a...

Nurse Residency Program (New Grads) - Changes in Hiring Criteria for the Nurse Residency Program

I recently had a series of interviews for a position in the MICU. First was with HR (nurse recruiter,) the second was with the Nurse Manager, and the third was a 'peer interview' with two nurses from the unit. I still don't know if I landed the jo...

Well I had the interview and I THINK I nailed it, which I never feel after interviews. Usually I feel as though I blew it. So we'll see. So eager to hear. Think I'll call the recruiter tomorrow and see when he thinks they'll choose a candidate.

I agree with you - that an interview is both for the potential employer to judge whether or not you'd be a good fit, and for you to judge whether the employer would be as well. The reason I'm so interested in the position is that I am relocating to a...
