Hello! Perhaps I could help you....I have been a Nurse Recruiter for 3+ years. Although I do not recruit in California, I do know know many Recruiters in this area. Private message me if you are interested!! Leah

When I read experiences such are yours....it makes me cringe! I have worked in HR for the past three years. However, I am a RN and have worked in the HR dept as a Nurse Recruiter. I really try to help fellow nurses find a unit/position that will be a...

you see!! Daytonite posted the attachment of her report sheet....:) My thoughts exactly Daytonite!

Suggestion: cover each patient's info in report in a head-to-toe fashion, or by systems....I know there are stickys on this site with examples of report sheets. This will help you in organizing your info during your shift (update labs, orders, etc) a...

I was a Nurse Recruiter for a couple of years at INTEGRIS. Once you have completed two semesters of clinicals you qualify to work as a Nurse Extern. I would encourage you to go ahead and talk with INTEGRIS Health about opportunities. They are a wonde...

my apologies....my kitty was helping me type this morning and apparently hit the enter button one too many times. :rotfl: sorry for the looks of the last post!!!!

. You really need to ask for the job description PRIOR to the interview. This info will tell you if you are qualified to do this position and what the job responsibilities are. Typically, when you apply to any position, the job description is availab...

My recommendation is to ask for the job description. They have to have a copy of the job description and this will help you prepare for the interview.

oh, and I failed to mention I received my LPN from Tulsa Tech in 1993. It was a great program.....it prepared me well for the "real-world" and made my RN school so do-able!

Hello everyone! My name is Leah. I attended UCO for my BSN(go Bronchos!!!) and graduated in 2002. Prior to this, I was an LPN for 9 years. Currently, I work at INTEGRIS as Nurse Recruiter. I absolutely LOVE my job. I also work around 16-20 hours per...

Dont know the laws in your state, but since the facility based their hiring decision and rescinded the job offer....you should have access to that background check. I would call and ask to meet with the Recruiter. Ask to see your background. In some ...

I work in HR.....and I am a RN. I would make the following suggestions: 1. Work with HR. Apply for the position and ask who you should follow up with. If you get the reply that someone will contact you if they are interested...ask if they are availab...

Luvmy2Angels, After reading your first post, I have one more thought...I would recommend you touch base with the Nurse Recruiter if more than five business days have passed since the interview. You will need to be very diplomatic and not pushy when y...

I would definitely send the thank you note. As a Nurse Recruiter, I recommend this step to all the applicants I interview!

Thunderwolf, For clarification....I have NOT recruited at all. I have not mentioned (nor do I intend to) the facility I work for. I am here to read any info on my profession that interests me. If I can be of help to nursing students or others who hav...

Hi marilyn, I have privately sent you some answers to your questions. I hope they help! I would like to add a thought to your question about having a choice on the unit you will work if you have taken a scholarship....As a Nurse Recruiter, I want any...

Hello! I am a RN recruiter for a large hospital here in OKC. I may be able to help you with your questions if you are still wondering! Thanks!

MyReign, To answer your questions.....The clinical times that UCO requires varies depending on which clinical rotation you are in. For example, when I was attending UCO, the critical care clinicals were two days per week. When I was in leadership, th...

Soon2binOK: Will you be moving to Oklahoma as your nicname indicates? I live in Oklahoma City ....would love to help you with any questions you may have about our state. Just let me know!:chuckle Welcome!

No, usually you are trained in the Burn Unit. It does take a while to learn all the dressings, etc. I started in a Burn Center right out of RN school. Loved it!! The unit is a "closed" unit meaning that only Burn RNs can work there...the hospital doe...
