  1. Finally!!! An interview!

    Congratulations!
  2. Hey guys, I have an interview coming up later this week. I applied to this facility when I just graduated in May. They called me today for an interview. So happy! However, I have already accepted a PRN position at a child/adolescent facility. I ha...
  3. GPC FALL 2012

    You can usually find uniforms in the Bookstore . (Clarkston) That's where I got mine. I just graduated in May. Good luck to you all!
  4. I just accepted an offer but I have another interview tomorrow

    Thanks for your responses. Ashley, I will definitely keep that in mind for the future. I thought about that as soon as I left the building, that maybe I should have asked for time to think it over. I went to the other interview today. No offer was ...
  5. Update: I got the job! The hours may end up conflicting with my schedule at my PRN job so I'm trying to figure out how to navigate that. My PRN job pays more but I think this is a better opportunity and I will get to see more and do more and work wit...
  6. Thanks SweetPEI, that makes sense.
  7. Should i take a review class!!

    I didn't take a review class. My point was, most people in the class did not take a review class and still passed..
  8. Should i take a review class!!

    Very few people in my class took a review course. All of us that have taken it thus far passed. Personally, I don't think review courses are a must but it depends on whether or not you feel prepared.
  9. Thanks WhatdoIdonow. I am really hoping it turns into full time. The nurse I worked with today started out PRN and is now full time so I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am scheduled for full time hours for this week and next week but who knows afte...
  10. I had an interview today that I think went well, matter of fact I was pretty sure I got the job since the nurse manager that interviewed me ended the interview with welcome aboard. Then she sent me over to HR to get my paper work started - I thought ...
  11. Register with Pearson Vue or BON first?

    I'm in GA and we had to register with Pearson Vue first. Had to be at least 48 hrs before applying for license. Check your state BON for the instructions for your particular state.
  12. How should I handle this dilemma?

    I have accepted a PRN position- my orientation starts next Monday. I just got a call from another facility that I applied to - I'm thinking great!! - But then I find out they are only holding interviews next week. I told her I am not available on the...
  13. How'd you pass the NCLEX

    I did not take it right after graduation. I took a BREAK! LOL - I needed to unwind after nursing school and catch up on some things that I did not have time to do. Plus it took almost 3 weeks to get my ATT after graduation. I graduated 5/4/2012. Sat...
  14. As others have said, its just that time of year. May grads posting that they've found a job. I graduated in May also, sat for NCLEX on 6/21 and just got my first job. I'd say about 1/3 of my class so far have jobs. My friend that graduated in Decemb...
  15. Update: I just spoke to the HR manager and was offered the job. However, details are still being worked out, it may only be part time so she wanted to know if I would be interested in part time nights - 11 - 7. Of course I said yes!! - Details are...
  16. Is 43.3 an ok score on teas v

    I may be wrong, but I don't think that is a competitive score for most programs. I would take it again, but before you do make sure you have reviewed sufficiently to raise your score.
  17. How'd you pass the NCLEX

    Studied a little over 2 weeks doing about 100 questions per day. I didn't have a set time that I studied. I would work on questions & read the rationales till I felt tired. Then take a break, do something else and get back to the rest of the ques...
  18. Did cover EVERY topic while studying for NCLEX??

    Here's my take on taking the NCLEX If you went to a decent program, applied yourself in nursing school, more than likely you will be fine. You've spent the last few years preparing for this. You can't relearn in a few weeks what you spent the last fe...
  19. Which to take over summer- AP2 or Micro?

    I would take micro over the summer. What is hard or easy is different for each person though. I thought micro was the easiest of the sciences.
  20. Interview appropriate? Opinions needed please

    Yes, some Ross Stores are better than others indeed. The one I went to had Calvin Klein and Nine West suits and others, incredibly marked down. I've also seen a few nice pieces at Marshall's at good prices. Sizes are usually limited though. At least...
  21. Interview appropriate? Opinions needed please

    Without even clicking, (Sorry, don't like clicking links on message boards) I would say that sleeveless would not be appropriate. By the way, I know that funds might be tight for some of us - If you have Ross Stores in your neck of the woods, I have...
  22. Devastated

    Does your state participate in getting quick results? Quick results should be available within 48 hrs so you should be able to find out for certain going that route if your state participates.
  23. Landed a New Grad Job!

    Congratulations!!!!
  24. Am I being paranoid about this ad?

    I saw a position on Craigslist that I would like to apply for. However, they asked to fax resume and copy of your license. Being that this is just a random ad on Craigslist and I have no idea of the name of the organization. Would this be OK? I'm wo...
