I'm sure this topic has come up before but I wanted to hear opinions from other travelers. So I started a contract on December 28,2015 at a hospital in Grand Forks, ND. I signed up to work on a 55 bed Cardiac unit. I was told during the interview tha...

Well I applied for license by endorsement to California. I though everything was going great because they issued my Temp license on 5/4/15 but now today I get a notice saying I'm missing an oral communication class and that I can't get my permanent l...

Just wondering if there is anyway to get Epic training if you don't work in a facility that uses it. I'm getting shut out of some great travel jobs because I have never used it before.

I wanted to hear thoughts about RN Network. I am considering them for my first assignment.

Yea I read about their training in Madison, WI just wasn't sure if there was any other program.

Today, I called up a travel nursing company and told the recruiter I was interested in going to Louisiana for a first time travel assignment since I have all my family there. Everything was going well until they wanted supervisor references. I was ho...

I asked about other types of references and the agency said it had to be only a direct supervisor. Too bad because I have plenty of coworkers and doctors that can give me rave reviews. They said they just wanted to ask her a few questions about my sk...

I am a new grad trying to get a job at this hospital and I can't seem to get anywhere with them despite having my application there since Jan. 18th. I have called and visited HR at a job fair to see if that might help but nothing. Right now they have...

So I have been an RN since March 2011. In Sept. 2011, I moved 1,600 miles to get a new grad job in a clinic ( that is all they would offer) . I got a sign on bonus and had to sign a one year contract. After about 7 months I asked if I could transfer ...

All the nurses on my unit are fairly new. No one has more than 2 yrs. experience except for the nurse managers. I left the clinic because I wanted to get acute care experience and I was afraid of getting stuck in one area early in my career. The clin...

I'm moving out there this week and I got hired through an agency. Even they could not find me a hotel room or apartment. Housing is tight but if you look everyday on Craigslist, or Roomates.com you can probably find something. I found someone on room...

I'm going to be moving to Minot at the end of Sept. for a job with Trinity and I was wondering if anyone else was moving around the same time or already in Minot and looking for a room mate.

Did you ever find anything ? I have been looking with no luck so far. I'm also waiting to hear about an apartment through trinity.

I'm a Dec. 2010 grad and could not find any job locally and I felt like I was running out of time before I was no longer employable Well I applied to a job in Minot, ND through a recruiting firm. I never thought I would move from the south but this w...

Did you get hired through an agency or directly by the hospital ? I have heard that even the hotels have no availability till at least Sept. 18th I got hired through an agency and they told me that the hospital has apartments and its 950 a month for ...

Yes I will be in the Oct. 3rd Orientation. I will be working a rotating position in the clinics. I'm thinking about getting up there at least a week before to find a place. It's kind of scary because many places won't rent to you unless you are in pe...

I currently live in Louisiana and after months of applying it looks like my best bet is to move away to another state. The problem is I don't know of any states or cities where it is easier to find work. I read posts about North Dakota and some citie...

If I do happen to find something in another state is it best to wait till I have a job offer before I try to get a license in that state ? Louisiana is not a compact state so I'm guessing in most states it will take about a month to get a license the...

I looked into that but I was wondering how competitive it is to get in there.

I am a new grad who has had trouble finding a job so my husband said he would talk to a friend of his that has connections to see if he could get me a job. I was optimistic about the idea and emailed the man my resume to pass along. Today he sends me...

My resume never had that objective. That is the one he wanted me to put. My object was this : OBJECTIVE: To obtain a position as a registered nurse

I did not edit my objective the way he wanted and I never would put personal info out there like that. I was so upset because I'm trying everything to get a job and I think he is just getting a laugh at my expense. I was crying my eyes out because I ...

Can anyone tell me where they are still hiring new grads. It's six months into my job search and I have applied all over with not one call back.
