    SLM3 replied to NurseCoco's topic in California Nursing

    Got an email today from the nurse recruiter saying that my application is being forwarded to the manager at the Hillcrest ED. Anyone else have good

  2. To the unemployed new grads... what ARE you doing?

    SLM3 replied to BigB_RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am receiving unemployment... I am very thankful for it, although I don't have a lot of bills (single, living at home). I do have expenses tho & if I didn't have it I'd probably have been...

  3. Notes for new graduates

    SLM3 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in First Year After Licensure

    As a new grad, I'll do whatever it takes & am open to better ways to get my foot in the door besides just applying online. But honestly, how am I supposed to get ahold of the unit director's...

  4. As if it isn't hard enough to find a job....

    SLM3 replied to SDALPN's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds shady... I don't trust craiglist for job

  5. Stanford New Grad 2011 Residency

    SLM3 replied to lisa333's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's what it looks like. That's kinda messed up. I've never seen a requirement like that, I usually only see programs require that you graduated within 1 year. Looks like they're trying to shrink...

  6. UCLA new RN residency program 2010

    SLM3 replied to newRNAllie's topic in California Nursing

    Betra, my interview was about 50 minutes also. I felt that my interviewer was going kinda fast, so I fed off her pace. Some were yes or no questions & I provided examples when she asked for...

  9. Move out here or get 1 year experience first ?!?

    SLM3 replied to indreams84's topic in California Nursing

    It's definitely not worth it. I understand the desire to jump in and go for it, I mean this is an exciting time of your life, you're ready for the hard work to pay off! But it's just unrealistic. I...

  10. VA Medical Center, Long Beach - New Grad Program

    SLM3 replied to deliverator's topic in California Nursing

    Hey, just curious if this has always been the case. Do you have to be a Valor/SNT to obtain a new grad position at the VA in Los Angeles? I just saw a Staff RN position posted that says Valor-SNT...

  11. Asking references to fill out forms

    SLM3 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I feel the same way. I feel like I'm harassing my references all the time. It's a good idea for employers & if it were just the one time & I got the job, it'd be no big deal. But with the...

  12. UCLA New Grad Program 2010

    SLM3 replied to MVJ0221's topic in First Year After Licensure

  13. Nursing Prerequisites

    SLM3 replied to Darkpk55's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Borders & Barnes and Noble have a lot of good books on these subjects. You should definitely start with anatomy & get a good understanding of it before moving on to physio &

  14. Would love realistic advice/alternatives for prospective BSN student with bad back

    SLM3 replied to wishinandhopin's topic in General Nursing

    I recently graduated and I also have a bad back. I'm a little worried about my future as I want to be a bedside nurse & nothing else, but I am going to do whatever it takes. I didn't have...

    SLM3 replied to MegaDrake's topic in California Nursing

  17. will ACLS/PALS boost resume of new grad

    SLM3 replied to djmsailor's topic in Emergency

    Yes, it will help, especially for ER positions. It's gotten so competitive that you really have to go so far as the get these certs to stand out in a competitive applicant pool, which ER residencies...

  18. Sharp New Grad Residency Winter 2010/2011

    SLM3 replied to twentysomething's topic in First Year After Licensure

  19. Sharp New Grad Residency Winter 2010/2011

    SLM3 replied to twentysomething's topic in First Year After Licensure

    The website says that it takes a few days to get a confirmation email because of the high volume of apps. However, I emailed them to make sure & they told me that they had only received my resume...

  20. Sharp New Grad Residency Winter 2010/2011

    SLM3 replied to twentysomething's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Ya, their application process is weird. You fill out all your info & then you can't see it anymore. I just followed their instructions step by step & am just trusting I did it all right...

  22. Sacramento Area Nursing

    SLM3 replied to JustKeepSmiling's topic in California Nursing

    From what I understand (as a new grad in CA), Sac has the least amount of new grad jobs than any other area in CA... Sutter, CHW, & Kaiser are "new grad friendly," but in reality they are barely...
