I interviewed for plano and Carrollton. My phone interviews were really weird. I am an out of state applicant and they want me to have an in person interview. Which I am going to set up today, but the phone interview felt really weird.

I am really confused. I went to the Texas-BON and hit apply (under examination) and it asks for my Texas DL.... Thank you guys for the comments. I seem to need to search harder.

So because I am a legal resident of Washington, a non compact state I would be able to apply for a Texas License with out needing to prove I am a Texas resident?

Hello, I am wondering what the new grad pay is in sherman texas? I have heard pretty low numbers in the low 20's. I will be a bachelor prepared nurse and may have a job offer in the works. Was just wondering what I could expect and if I can negotiat...

I know! Most instructors I talk to say getting a job right out of school in the OR will be tough. I have worked as a CNA for a little over 6-7 months would that be enough? I am torn on where I want to work really, I would love to work in the OR or Ps...

I will be graduating (fingers crossed) in May with a BSN from a college in Idaho. I am from the Dallas area and will be returning there shortly after graduation, two-three weeks after. My family and I will be living with my wife's parents until we fi...
