  2. Where are you planning on working after you graduate?

    In this economy, you should not think about where you want to work, but where you can get a job. In 1-2 years maybe things will be better but you need to do really well in your studies and hope you...
  3. New Grad Freaking out about jobs

  4. A Masters in What??

    If you want to succeed in nursing, focus your attention on a MSN and/or DNP. The MPH is great but will not help you in nursing, even if you want to pursue public health nursing. You need the one year...

  7. PARENTS!!!!

    I think that we as a profession need to be kind to one another. We have been there, and done that. School nurses know their stuff and keep the kids safe and healthy. Critical care nurses know their...
  8. Va now hiring des moines ia

    :yeah:How do I apply? I have always wanted to live there - I heard about the people and such from my friends. Do I have to go through USAJOBS.com? Do they take people with RNs? New grads?
  9. New RNs, No job.

    I am having no success in finding a nursing job, despite having a high GPA, Honors, and an impressive resume. Should I give up, after 5 months and go back to my previous occupation? I can't stand...
  10. I have said it before and I will say it again - This is just one example of things insurance companies have done over the decades to avoid taking care of the beneficiaries and line their stockholder's...

  16. A Letter to Hollywood: Nurses Are Not Handmaidens

    I just finished watching the first (and hopefully the last) issue of Miami Medical. There were 6 doctors in the room for one patient and not one nurse. The doctors even removed the patient's clothes!...
  17. advice about PA or NP?

    I am not a PA but I did get into PA school and only lasted a short time. Many of the people I went to school with told me that they were depressed, stressed, unhappy, getting a divorce or on the verge...
  18. advice about PA or NP?

    PA schools are very hard to get into. PA school also is very hard on your family and friends. It was like boot camp for me. Neither one I liked much. NP programs, after you get your RN, can be done,...

    I know it is upsetting but try not to dwell on the past. I used many books to prepare but I would recommend getting LaCharity's book on prioritization, Gauwitz for questions with rationales and if you...
  20. Preparing for "staff interview" in ED

    :uhoh21: I think with the number of people out of work on this blog, you'd understand when I say "take what you can get". If someone on days later drops out, you will be perfectly positioned to step...
  21. RN salaries In Tampa, FL??

    There are no jobs for new grads in NY either. You are lucky if you can find a job in TX now. What we need is the economy to thaw a little faster so that the nurses who are going to retire, do retire...
  22. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    Thank you so much for the "trick"! I was sure that I failed the exam but I got the good pop up so it gave me hope. I just found out (15 minutes ago) I passed! I am so happy! Good luck to everyone! If...
  23. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    I just took the NCLEX-RN this morning. It was the hardest exam I have ever taken in my life. Even the MCAT was not as hard. I tried the trick when I got home and it would not let me register again. It...
