  1. should potential employers use credit checks?

    dance4life replied to smartnurse1982's topic in General Nursing

    In all honesty, I don't think a job has looked at my credit report. At least, I have not seen one do so on mine. I have filled out applications where they said they were going to do so. Do I think...

  2. No Job offers......are you accepting lower positions?

    dance4life replied to grateful2010's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think I can accept lower positions in the state I live in, but if I could I would! Being that I can't even get a receptionist job anywhere. Did you know, that some even require a Bachelors...

    dance4life replied to dance4life's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I called since they didn't call me fast enough, lol. She said that the laws in MA are going to change with Estheticians something about that you have to be a nurse to administer. So that is a...

  7. Esthetician and Nursing is it worth it?

    dance4life replied to dance4life's topic in General Nursing

    Wow thanks! It is something I probably would wait to see if a Plastic Surgeon would hire me for. I guess I don't need my Esthetics license just someone to train me. Not out here, I remember when I did...

    dance4life replied to Ckwil1948's topic in General Nursing

    I was laid off in 2007 by a hospital. Low patient census. It was my first hospital job, so of course I didn't have enough experience to be transferred to another unit. I am in my 30's. I packed up my...

  10. how to work in Massachussetts

    dance4life replied to EviS123's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    dance4life replied to dance4life's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for your input. I live in a city, but that doesn't make getting jobs any easier. I can't find a "good" job for the life of me. Otherwise, I would have one. It is really competitive here in...

    dance4life replied to butterflymel6's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    That is the route I took when I graduated. I stayed at the facility for over a year and was hired into Med/Surg. That was 5 years ago, I am not sure what the strategy is

    dance4life replied to EviS123's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    It is very difficult. It took me a year to find a full-time job that isn't in the best of places, with 5 years behind my belt and 2 years hospital experience. I found out along the way that I am not a...
