  1. Recruiters

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Advanced Practice

    Are recruiters a good source for new graduates looking for a FNP position? I'm willing to move anywhere in the U.S. as long as the salary is equivocal to the cost of living wherever I end up. I was...

  2. After 2 months, I have to leave my 1st FNP position

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Well I received a warning call from supervising physician yesterday asking if I was willing to go part time. She states he's talking about only having the clinic open 2 days/week, of course I cannot...

  3. After 2 months, I have to leave my 1st FNP position

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I never thought I would end up in this predicament, but I totally made the wrong choice in my first FNP position. If you have read my posts in the past around May/June, you know I was scrambling to...

  4. Time to move on?

    jaznia15 replied to grapejuice01's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Move on.... There really is no loyalty when it comes to money. I am a new practitioner who came to a practice that services majority low income patients. The numbers are low, but were also low...

  5. After 2 months, I have to leave my 1st FNP position

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm looking into lawyers now to look at my contract to see if it can be voided based on breach of contract on their part. Speaking with recruiters now. I'm open to going ANYWHERE at this point, but...

  6. After 2 months, I have to leave my 1st FNP position

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Definitely will be leaving. Called my supervising physician as professional courtesy to let her know I'd turned in my notice, she told me that basically the owning was talking about shutting down the...

  7. Disappointment trying not to be discouraged (very long post)

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The conclusion to my very stressful job search, but I must say at least this stress was brief. After talking with family, friends, and God I decided to take the offer of taking over the practice....

  8. Looking back, would you obtain NP credential??

    jaznia15 replied to Cindy-20's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have just accepted my first position as a FNP and have not started working as of yet so take my comments with a grain of salt. I have just accepted my first position as a FNP taking over a rural...

  9. Disappointment trying not to be discouraged (very long post)

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I actually never got confirmation on the 80K, I was just told that she would try her best to convince her business partner to pay me that much. After speaking with my friend who was offered the same...

  10. What is a reasonable new grad offer?

    jaznia15 replied to NdoNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    How do you know if the company is willing to "counter"? So far the MDs I've met with have seemed to be stuck in their heels about their offers. As I mentioned in another post, I have been basically...

  11. Disappointment trying not to be discouraged (very long post)

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    After speaking with another person, I have decided to set my low at 80k. I have two classmates who were gracious enough to share their salary with me. One is getting 90k at private peds office and...

  12. Disappointment trying not to be discouraged (very long post)

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  13. Seasoned FNP tell me the truth....

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am graduating this May....(in 107 days to be exact) and I am so torn. I have always longed to move from this small town since obtaining my BSN. I ultimately didn't make the move because a staff...

  14. Seasoned FNP tell me the truth....

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thanks so much for your advice. I am looking to take the job offer if still available. My preceptor has expressed many times that he would like for me to stay for several reasons with the main...

  15. Equal pay for equal work?

    jaznia15 replied to MILOBRI's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I agree with the above posters the choice you make depends on your circumstances. I always dreamed of becoming a MD in my younger days, but a teenage pregnancy changed my whole life. My wants and...

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  17. Anyone ever been in this situation

    jaznia15 replied to jaznia15's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    *****UPDATE****** Well I ended up making a 90 on the final ("B" yet again lol) which brought my overall grade to an 85. I'm glad to see we aren't the only school with a skewed grading scale. Many...

  18. Young NP not getting any respect

    jaznia15 replied to lovepeacejoy1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is a very interesting dilemma. I will be finishing my FNP program this upcoming May (2014) and will be 24 once I graduate. My birthday is in July so I'll probably be 25 by the time I obtain an...

  19. Collaborating physician problems

    jaznia15 replied to Othernothing's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am not a FNP as of yet but my advice is based on personal experience in the past. If you have feelings that a job is not working out, chances are the employer feels the same. I was at a job...

    jaznia15 replied to mmcc26's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    jaznia15 replied to SlyFoxRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am currently attending a brick and motar university which offers the MSN as a "hybrid" program (online+face to face time). We have to find our own preceptors and for me it has not been that...

    jaznia15 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  23. Taking a Break from FNP Program

    jaznia15 replied to ChristineN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    jaznia15 replied to fivefeet05NP2B's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner
