    OMG CONGRATS KATSIE! That is so incredibly awesome! And now you can deny your offer at the other hospital, haha. What floor/shift did you get? My stomach is all in knots now. Holy crap. GAH! These...

    They're sending e-mails for rejections?! :\ I'd much rather get a phone call... now I'm nervous about receiving e-mails! I picked the cardiac floor and then the neuro/cardiac overflow floor (which is...

  5. Mayo New Grad program

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Welcome to the convo Jackie! I love/hate it when I get a phone call from an unknown number because I don't know if its a phone call for nursing or just something else, gah! I've been great at picking...

  6. Mayo New Grad program

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I don't remember other things too clearly from the interview either, haha. When it was done, I was just relieved. She was also talking really fast, so I felt like I was writing more than paying...

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Eesh, monday or tuesday?! I just heard mid-nov during my convo, so I was thinking next week! I guess it was just an estimate though. Hearing tomorrow would be awesome! I'm gonna be nervous the next...

  8. Mayo New Grad program

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I chose cardiac just because I've had a lot of cardiac experience and I enjoyed it. I didn't know they would be popular units because of my interviewers reaction on the phone. After I told her, she...

  9. Mayo New Grad program

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I knew there would be clinical questions, but I didn't really practice for those. My plan was to just remember my nursing basics like assessment (assessment, assessment, assessment), interventions,...

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    So Katsie, how did the interview go?? I felt mine went pretty well, I hope...heh. I was well-prepared for it though! I actually think over prepared, haha. I had like 4 pages of potential questions and...

    Good luck to you too! I am really going to study up for this interview. I'm glad I have a couple weeks to prepare for

    tashacorinne replied to savexpigoo's topic in California Nursing

    UCLA didn't even look at my stuff, I know it. I sent my application in on a Friday and I got my denial on Monday morning. Its probably because I'm not from the LA area. I wish they would have said...

    tashacorinne replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It really was, I seriously miss that place! I spent so much time and money at The Bear, haha. And I miss my morning jogs through Bidwell... I just wish Enloe hired external new grads, but whatever....

    Samesies On the bright side, I got a call back for an interview from the Mayo Clinic in AZ! Woot! Good to everyone who applied to

  16. CHOC February 2012

    tashacorinne replied to Lauren4268's topic in California Nursing

    Nope, no responses yet. I think I put PICU as my #1 though. Would the nurse recruiter know how many positions are open in each

  17. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    tashacorinne replied to savexpigoo's topic in California Nursing

    I'm including my cover letter. I think somewhere in the application it says to include your resume and then in parenthesis it says to add your cover letter. If I'm wrong, then whatever. They can just...

  18. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    tashacorinne replied to savexpigoo's topic in California Nursing

    A month wait sounds about normal, other new grad programs seem to be about the same. I wish someone would pick up the phone though, but I'm sure they get tons of calls and just ignore them. I wish I...

    tashacorinne replied to savexpigoo's topic in California Nursing

    I almost have my packet done. I'm just waiting for one of my reference letters to come in on letterhead! :/ I wish I could turn it in in person, but I can't really make the 5 hour drive (not including...

  20. CHOC February 2012

    tashacorinne replied to Lauren4268's topic in California Nursing

    I'm not sure... California is pretty competitive right now and I think having anything higher will give you a leg up. Also CHOC is a magnet hospital and it seems like magnet hospitals prefer BSNs. I...

  21. CHOC February 2012

    tashacorinne replied to Lauren4268's topic in California Nursing

    I've heard about those 12 month accelerated BSN programs! I'm glad to hear that you're surviving! I'm guessing you're going to be applying for CA licensure? Hows the job market in Nebraska for new...

  22. CHOC February 2012

    tashacorinne replied to Lauren4268's topic in California Nursing

    I'm from Roseville, so your hometown is close to mine! I actually got my BSN degree from Chico State. What state are you coming in

    tashacorinne replied to Lauren4268's topic in California Nursing

    I'm applying for PICU and NICU... I'm from sac too! I just hope I get a call back. I've been applying for jobs since Feb (before I graduated) and still no job Let's hope my experience working with...

  24. RN Transfer from Florida to California

    tashacorinne replied to Ashley417's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Well, since CA is such a huge state, its hard to find the little jobs in every part of the state. I guess you're lucky in knowing some physicians and looking in the way north of the state. Where I am,...

  25. RN Transfer from Florida to California

    tashacorinne replied to Ashley417's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You can get licensure by endorsement. Look it up on the CA BRN website. The NCLEX is a state-wide recognized test, so you wouldn't need to take it again. I wouldn't recommend coming to CA though,...
