  1. UCLA New Grad Summer 2012 program

    Haha, nope. I'm near sac. I went to school at Chico State, so I went to rural hospitals from all the way up to Redding down to Yuba City. I really enjoyed the rural hospitals though, but I do wish I...
  2. KATRN78, I feel your pain. I think we graduated at the same time... Luckily I was able to move back with my parents and don't have to support myself with a full time job. I do keep a part time job...
  3. UCLA New Grad Summer 2012 program

    Holy. Crap. That is SO many people! I literally can't imagine a hospital of that size. I've only done clinicals in small and rural

    Sent out my packet today :) Nowwwww the waiting game. Ugh. CALRN2012 - I have my BSN and
  5. CHLA RN Residency Program September 2012

    Sitch321 - I believe that the 'letter of intent' is almost the exactly the same as a cover letter. So I wouldn't include a cover letter, at least I'm not. I got my point across in the letter of...

  7. CHLA RN Residency Program September 2012

    I think I'm going to put PICU as my #1 and then maybe med/surg. I just got my packet though. Time to print out my stuff and send it in
  8. CHLA RN Residency Program September 2012

    I didn't even have the opportunity to do a senior preceptorship in pediatrics Our closest 'pediatrics' hospital was relocating the unit and wasn't taking any students. So I did mine in an...

    I applied, but I don't think I will hear anything back. Negative Nancy over
  10. Expanding my search area

    Sorry to say this, but 1 month is good. I graduated May 2011 and haven't landed a job yet. All I have to recommend is to network and, if you can, get in peoples faces. Try to hunt down that manager of...
  11. You should see if there are any free clinics in your area. Those places would probably love a volunteer and with volunteering you can basically make your own schedule. You commit how much you want to...
  12. Meeting a nurse manager

    Thank you so much for the advice cuddles. I like the question that you suggested. Also, I visit this city a lot and hope to get the courage to keep visiting them after I am introduced to them. I hope...
  13. Meeting a nurse manager

    Hi everyone! So I've been searching for a job for the past 6 months -- ugh. I finally made a connection with a guy who is going to introduce me to a couple of nurse managers who have a few openings on...
  14. Scripps New Grad Training Program

    I got the rejection e-mail too. I thought I would have made it in the first 500 as I applied on Tuesday evening. Oh well, its just another rejection e-mail to add to my growing list. Good luck to...
  15. Scripps New Grad Training Program

    I got mine in on Tuesday evening, maybe 5ish and I have "submission received". I hope I got it in on time because that would be ridiculous if it didn't! :\ Now I'm super worried -- ugh. I'm sick of...
  16. Scripps New Grad Training Program

    I just called to see when the last day they were sending out interview emails and they didn't pick up the phone. I left a message though. Hopefully they will get back to me and let me know. I'll share...
  17. Scripps New Grad Training Program

    Wow, I'm surprised people are already being called for
  18. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    I might call them later if I get the chance. It is seriously nerve racking not getting a phone call nor a letter of rejection by now when others
  19. Mayo New Grad program

    Well, I guess 11.11.11 isn't a lucky day. I just got a rejection e-mail. This seriously sucks. I am sick of receiving rejections and it's taking a toll on me. Katsie, enjoy your time at Mayo Clinic...

    I'm not in the LA area, but I still haven't heard anything. I'm banking on 11.11.11 being a lucky day
  21. Mayo New Grad program

    ...Still no phone call yet.... This waiting game is a little frying on my nerves. I'm kinda also waiting for Children's Hospital LA to either call for an interview or send me a rejection letter. The...
  22. Mayo New Grad program

    Eh, it just says 'application in review'. I don't think the status will change until they send out notices/make phone
  23. Neupogen

    Thank you for letting me know. I had minimal experience in oncology while I was in nursing school. You learn something new every day
  24. Neupogen

    Isn't neupogen given IM? I think that patients who are immunocompromised aren't allowed to have any 'invasive' procedures, and that includes IMs and new IVs. The opening in the skin may be a route...
  25. Mayo New Grad program

    Nice, day shift :) I am very happy for you Katsie! If I get a good phone call, I might be sending you a message for advice on where to live in AZ. I will have no idea where to go and will only have...
