2. How is the job market for NP's?

   yourkyfankim replied to yourkyfankim's topic in NP

   I think there probably are more FNP's simply because that degree is more flexible. If you choose something specialized, you limit your job possibilities when you live in small town USA. I always wanted to be a nurse midwife until I realized the hou...

3. How is the job market for NP's?

   yourkyfankim posted a topic in NP

   I have heard that the market has become saturated with NP's and jobs were getting harder and harder to find. I had been considering going back to school for my masters but after hearing that, I am afraid I'd be throwing my money and time away. Any ...

   yourkyfankim replied to werkinit's topic in General Nursing

   I actually have used mine. Any time I have a specific condition I want some in-depth info on, I turn to them. Sure, I use the internet too, but I like my books because I can find exactly what I'm looking for quickly instead of browsing page after p...

5. Can't even get an interview!

   yourkyfankim replied to loving2's topic in General Nursing

   Amen, amen and AMEN!!! I am a bachelor's prepared RN and I have never had so much trouble getting an interview in my life! And I agree with the post earlier that said she's tired of being ignored and her phone calls never being returned!! VERY unp...

9. Can't even get an interview!

   yourkyfankim replied to loving2's topic in General Nursing

   I totally feel your pain! I am in the same boat. I have applied for countless jobs and have managed to get 1 interview. I took a job at a local hospital straight out of nursing school in the cardiac telemetry unit as an admissions and discharge nu...
