  1. USC New Grad Program 2011

    I have found other threads for previous programs very helpful so I thought I would start one for the new program so that we can talk about it. So I applied the first day apps opened & am in the process of preparing to send my supplementary stuff....
  2. Notes for new graduates

    Yay! Congratulations! I got one too, started this week.
  3. Fresno Nurses: Please advise me

    Are you relocating to Fresno? Fresno pretty much sucks. Are you wanting to know about specific apt complexes or streets/neighborhoods? In general, the more north you go, the nicer it gets, so you'll find better apts & neighborhoods. St Agnes ...
  4. Prereq's grades vs nursing school grades

    error
  5. ED Nursing Book recommendations?

    Sheehy's Manual of Emergency Care
  6. Lets Talk Money...

    I was just offered an ER position in San Diego & the pay is $33.something. I've heard that this particular hospital pays the best in the area. I don't know the differential for nights, weekends, etc.
  7. You should be clean by the time you have your drug test, IMO.
  8. White Memorial New Grad Program

    Indeed.com often posts old job postings for positions that are actually no longer available on the hospital's website. As far as White Memorial's New Grad Program, I'm pretty sure that was originally posted a couple months ago.
  9. White Memorial New Grad Program

    Indeed.com often posts old job postings for positions that are actually no longer available on the hospital's website. As far as White Memorial's New Grad Program, I'm pretty sure that was originally posted a couple months ago.
  10. I think some of them accept both new grads & experienced RNs wanting to enter a new specialty. They may not specifically state that on their website, so I would inquire about it. Where do you live?
  11. UCSF New Grad Program

    Are you using Mozilla? I had the same problem, then realized it's probably not compatible with this browser. I tried it using Internet Explorer & it worked.
  12. UCSD January 2011 New Grad Program

    Ya, after the new year I was contacted by nurse recruitment about submitting my references. They are putting quite a bit of importance on my references... the manager even called me asking me to get a reference from my preceptorship (after giving 5 ...
  13. UCSD Medical Center Interview

    My interview went quite well... I think I had a unique experience compared to other units in that it was not panel & I wasn't asked any formal questions. We just talked about what's important, it was more like conversation. So I don't think I c...
  14. UCSD Medical Center Interview

    What unit? I had an interview in the ED & am now waiting to hear the final decision.
  15. Cedar... New Grad Program 2011?

    nmh586, have you applied before? I don't think the application asked us to pick a specific unit. It was just for the new grad program in general. During my phone interview I was asked my unit of choice, but was told that I would be able to talk to m...
  16. UCLA New Grad one year program 2011

    So I wanted to let everyone know about my experience. I decided to call the other day to follow up on my application. I told the recruiter that I had heard the ER (my first choice) wasn't able to hire as many new grads as they had intended so I tho...
  17. Are you being "hounded" to pay back student loans-

    My 6 mo grace period ended in Nov & I requested to defer my payments as soon as I could. Because some of my loans got sold from company to company while I was in school, I have half my loans at one bank and the rest at another. Luckily, deferri...
  18. 2010-11 San Francisco VA new grad program

    I think the job posting said it would be like a month before they contact people.
  19. UCSD January 2011 New Grad Program

    My experience is externing in an ER during nursing school. I think the big thing was that I did my senior preceptorship in a Level 1 Trauma Center. I'm also ACLS & PALS certified. I've got lots of pretty stuff on my resume, but I think these m...
  20. UCSD January 2011 New Grad Program

    I had my interview in the ED on Wed, it went very well! However, she still has 9 more people to interview so I won't find out the results until after the new year. Like previous posts have stated, it sounds like that each unit hires two new grads e...
  21. UCLA New Grad one year program 2011

    I'm from Central Cal. Very thankful that UCLA considers everybody.
  22. UCLA new RN residency program 2010

    That suuuucks. ER was my first choice, second choice being Med-Surg/Step-Down.. I'm sure plenty of people listed Med-Surg as their first choice, so it doesn't look good for me.
  23. UCSD October 2010 New Grad Program

    Hey nurselindah, I noticed that you applied to the ER for the Oct program. Did you end up applying again this time around? If so, did you hear anything from them?
  24. New Grad Nurse from Fresno Looking For A Job

    There are no new grad programs in Fresno. You pretty much have to have an "in" or have externed there to get hired. If you can't relocate I would recommend trying to make some connections. Did you try Kaweah Delta in Visalia?
  25. UCLA New Grad Program 2010

    Yes it's area code 310
