I had two interviews from different hospitals, one was open house interview and the other one was a new-grad program. I did not get any phone calls. I was curious how other nurses would answer these questions? 1) How do you handle conflicts with co-workers? I was not sure if this is a tricky question, should I say that I would discuss the conflict with my co-worker if this is something can be solved? or should I say that I would go to the supervisor right away? I was not sure what kind of answer they wanted. 2) How do you handle stress at work place? I paused for few seconds when I was asked this question. I said that I would prioritize my tasks first and work from top to the bottom. If it is something can be corrected, I tend to find a way to work it out. If not, I try to be realistic and go to next problem.

Congrats !!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you !! Go us! Go us! :w00t:

My friend who had graduated a year ago applied Vanderbilt several times and could not get an interview (as a new grad). Vanderbilt is very competitive and I've heard it is hard to get a job as a new grad. The pay is not high compared to any other hospitals around this area. Most hospitals in this area (west TN) starts around $19 as a new grad. I think $1.50 difference for the night shift and $3.00 on weekend. Vandy starts around $19.00 also as a new grad.

Hi, I am in 2nd semester in Nursing school (total 5 semester), I had an opportunity to turn in Scholarship application back in March 2010, however, I did NOT turn it in even though I filled out the form. My GPA is 3.4 and I thought that was pretty low to obtain a scholarship. However, my classmate who had about the same GPA turned it in and got $ 6,500 per year scholarship. I didn't even know the fact that she turned it in. She just have to work in certain county (3~4 county around in my area) in our state for about 2 years. I so regret that I haven't turned it in. So I asked my advisor, then she said, in our nursing school they only accept scholarship application in March then you find out whether you get it or not by October. Is it like that to any other Nursing scholarship? So, I am graduating May 2012, if I apply for scholarship next year which is March 2012, then I guess I will find out whether I am getting it or not in October. Does that mean I will only get scholarship for Spring semester in 2012? For just one semester? Or is ther any other reimbursement? I have no idea how that works.... If there is any other sources, please let me know.
