  1. City of Hope - New Grad August 2013

    db2xs replied to CaliRN13's topic in California Nursing

    CaliRN13--I feel your pain, for sure. I live in Berkeley and if I got this temp thing, I would stay temporarily in Los Angeles with my sister. I already have some part-time gigs lined up here in San...

  2. City of Hope - New Grad August 2013

    db2xs replied to CaliRN13's topic in California Nursing

    I did. I don't know exactly what this means for my future (still waiting for a response regarding the interview), but I'm willing to do it. What I am wondering is if they'll ask us to work this temp...

  3. New Graduate position suggestions in LA area? BSN of 4 months

    db2xs replied to nownlater322's topic in California Nursing

    I was just driving down to Los Angeles from San Francisco yesterday and when I got into LA via the I-5, I saw a bus that said that the Los Angeles County Police is looking for nurses: LASD Medical...

  5. El Camino New Grad

    db2xs replied to skp27's topic in California Nursing

    In person ... I like that idea. Maybe I should do that. Still waiting on a couple of transcripts and recommendations. They should come

  6. OccuVAX...? Or other flu/vaccine clinics...

    db2xs replied to Peppermint_RN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I have already received emails asking me to sign up for a clinic. There was a long list of positions and days, etc. As a new grad, I assume they want me to just jump in and start giving vaccinations?...

  7. How long did it take you to land your first job?

    db2xs replied to Sessa RN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I think you are being too hard on yourself. You did the best you could with what you knew at the time. I too did not work as a tech during school; instead, I worked my previous freelance gig (which...

  8. City of Hope - New Grad August 2013

    db2xs replied to CaliRN13's topic in California Nursing

    Johnny, I'm just going by what the nursing recruiter told me. When I spoke with her regarding the June cohort, she said it took them awhile to get through the applications because there were so many...

  9. Need some advice

    db2xs replied to Rigos's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Rigos, that's really a tough call and one you will probably have to make on your own. You could also get a free consultation with licensing attorney. I called a California licensing attorney and she...

  10. Anyone know of an ACLS/PALS combo class in the Bay Area?

    db2xs replied to mr cooper's topic in California Nursing

    Genanais, one more question: Is it set up that you first do online studying, print out the certificate, and then go in person? I assume all the certification stuff is like that.

  11. Anyone know of an ACLS/PALS combo class in the Bay Area?

    db2xs replied to mr cooper's topic in California Nursing

    Damn, the bundle is expensive, but it this is also great--I had no idea about this. Thank

  12. City of Hope - New Grad August 2013

    db2xs replied to CaliRN13's topic in California Nursing

    I had applied to the June cohort and didn't get in so I called to find out why. During our conversation, the nurse recruiter told me that they only take people who have some sort of experience in...

  13. Stanford Hospitals and Clinics Residency 2013

    db2xs posted a topic in California Nursing

    Hi everyone. I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has applied for this in the past and if so, would you know which units they're hiring for? Thanks a lot! Reminder: Application is opening...

  14. Background Check Prior To School

    db2xs replied to Xtrememedic's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Xtrememedic, I reported a drug-related misdemeanor from 1999 that was sealed in 2000. I was nervous, etc., and annoyed that no one in nursing school told me that I would have to deal with this come...

  15. Swedish Residency May 2013

    db2xs replied to wannabemurse's topic in Washington Nursing

    "Hundreds" of new grads applying for 44 positions sounds great to me, esp compared to California, which is where I'm from, where there'll be over 1,000 applicants for 1 to 3 positions. I have had a...

  16. Stanford Hospitals and Clinics Residency 2013

    db2xs replied to db2xs's topic in California Nursing

    Did anyone else apply for this? Did anyone else want to kill themselves after that long and grueling online assessment? Omg, talk about the mother of all online assessments

  17. Desert Regional New Grad Program

    db2xs replied to gastro2012's topic in California Nursing

    Hi. I applied for this 2 weeks ago and haven't heard from anyone yet. I imagine this one is a bit more low-key than the others, esp since it was brought up a bit

  18. UCSF New Grad Program 2013

    db2xs replied to asats's topic in California Nursing

    It's confirmed. I wrote to the Recruitment Coordinator and she said this: "Thank you for your interest in employment at UCSF Medical Center. At this point in time we do not anticipate that we will...

    db2xs replied to asats's topic in California Nursing

    Wow, talk about "That blows" times

  20. Seton Healthcare Residency Austin 2013

    db2xs posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    I feel some surprise that no one has started a thread about this. The application process opened in January for a June start date. Has anyone else applied to this? Does anyone else know any more...

  21. Scripps new grad program summer 2013

    db2xs replied to EMTcap's topic in California Nursing

    I applied at around 10:15 a.m. I just did the math and I realized it's going to cost around $700 for me to go to San Diego RT, which includes a rental car and a hotel room. And this is for less than...

  22. Scripps new grad program summer 2013

    db2xs replied to EMTcap's topic in California Nursing

    I am going to say that I am just absolutely shocked that I too received an email for an interview! This is nuts. I am going to school out of state (as in 3,000 miles away out of state) but I will come...

  23. Ca. Board of Registered Nursing Enforcement Program

    db2xs replied to izzibella's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Thanks izzibella. I just mailed out my application to the California BON last Friday, which should be arriving to them on Monday. It took me three months (February until now) to get all my paperwork...

  24. Losing respect for nursing students

    db2xs replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    I would agree with you. My program is a mix of first-degreers and second-degreers, but without a doubt, if there are any issues about behavior/appearance on the unit, the clinical coordinators and...
