  1. Graduated 12/10, still no job, giving up...

    crossingfingers10 replied to RNtslifka's topic in First Year After Licensure

    It is so difficult as a new grad right now, but all I can say is hang in there...something will come along for you. I graduated in June 2010 at the top of my class as well. I didn't land my first job...

  2. GAPP at Phoenix Children's Hospital

    crossingfingers10 replied to JamesmamaRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know, super disappointing for her. I'm hopeful that she'll get in for Sept though. No emails or calls for me today, what about you? The waiting game is the worst

  3. GAPP at Phoenix Children's Hospital

    crossingfingers10 replied to JamesmamaRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    So would I! So exciting. I do have a friend who interviewed for med-surg last week and she received an email last night saying she was not selected, so maybe you're still in the running! My phone is...

    crossingfingers10 replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Haven't heard anything here yet. According to the PCH careers page on FB, the calls for the August start date have started to go out (as of tonight around 6pm it looks like), and those who were not...

  5. Phoenix Children's Hospital New Grad Program (GAPP) Summer 2011

    crossingfingers10 replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi again :) Well, HR said within one week, but then when I interviewed I said I would prefer the August class so they told me within a few days. I think it went really well! But it's hard to tell for...

  9. How to NOT gain weight in Nursing School??

    crossingfingers10 replied to motheringheart's topic in General Students

    I gained about 10 lbs during nursing school. I always snack when I study, I never had a lot of time so fast food became more of a habit than I would've liked, and exercise definitely fell by the...

  10. Legacy Health Residency, Portland, OR

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Got my rejection email yesterday as well! Not surprised either, I've been expecting it. At least I can move on without having so many things on hold that were dependent on getting this job vs. not...

  11. Legacy Health Residency, Portland, OR

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Nothing here either, so frustrating! I just want to know one way or another. I've thought about calling, but I figure it won't really matter until I hear something 100% by phone or email. I hope we...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I requested Women's Services also, at Meridian Park Medical Center. What hospital did you request? I completed my preceptorship on a postpartum unit and absolutely loved it. I've only seen maybe one...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I remember last time I didn't get a call until the last day that they were making calls, so maybe by the end of the week. When I had my phone interview they said second interviews would be late...

  15. Legacy Health Residency, Portland, OR

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Not yet! I've been waiting and hoping they call early this week. I just want to know one way or another. Has anyone else heard anything? I know they said they would contact us one way or another so...

  16. Infant CPR while holding the baby on your arm...What?

    crossingfingers10 replied to everthesame's topic in General Nursing

    I have always been taught this way in BLS for healthcare providers and ACLS just this past year. I'm sure a flat surface is more ideal when possible, though. Like others have said, the football type...

  17. New RN can't find a job!!!!!

    crossingfingers10 replied to ajitamamasita's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Not so rare, unfortunately. This is happening in my area too with one of the large hospitals. They don't have the spots for the graduates so they are still covering their tuition since that was the...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I remember reading in the posted info that first interviews would be 12/14 and 12/16. Does anyone remember the dates given for second interviews? I remember it was either the second or third week of...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Good luck to you! Peds would have been my second choice but I listed postpartum as my preferred area and I also had my practicum in postpartum. Did she just ask basic questions? I have mine scheduled...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    They called and left me a message this afternoon! Unfortunately I was volunteering at the hospital and couldn't answer, but I called back and left a message. Hopefully she'll call back tomorrow...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Totally untrue! Don't come here if you're looking for new grad jobs, haha. I've applied to close to 100 jobs here in the Phoenix area at different hospitals, different units, surgical centers, home...

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    crossingfingers10 replied to islandteam2003's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I still haven't heard anything either, so I'm really hoping I hear something today. I have an ADN and know I met minimum qualifications and sent everything in. However I do live in AZ, so I wonder if...
