  1. IL licensure by endorsement

    A temporary permit allows you to work until you receive your permanent license.
  2. Will move for work but where???

    Both from the boards and from looking at job postings, it seems that Texas is hiring new grads at a higher rate than many other parts of the country. I think though that you will need to stay away from the larger cities, as those areas already have m...
  3. In another thread I saw that someone got the "We've received your application" email just today, so they're definitely still just looking through the apps. That makes me wonder just how many people have applied... :/
  4. You're welcome!! When I saw your post I panicked and immediately checked the posting, because I had only attached my docs to the online app as well. :)
  5. TDO RN - If you double-check the job posting, it says that you could attach the docs to the online application, fax them, OR email them to that address. So you should be fine on that front. :) ~M
  6. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    davismom - That's wonderful to hear about those two nurses getting loan forgiveness a couple years ago! There may well be some positions in Cali still offering that to inexperienced new grad RNs, but I just haven't heard of any myself. (All my job m...
  7. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    Oaktown2 - I asked a classmate of mine what he thought of the commute from Carmichael, and here's what he had to say: "I [lived] in Carmichael..around the vicinity of Manzanita and Madison. "I think that the commute was pretty reasonable...it was...
  8. Stanford and Lucile Packard 2011 RN Residency

    This applies to the Stanford Hospital positions. This is what I understood from my conversation with the recruiter this morning. There are 961 applicants vying for about 10 positions. (I am not sure how to account for the discrepancy from earlier p...
  9. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    I am not too familiar with the process of becoming a CNA. I have heard that some hospitals will accept nursing students who have completed their first semester, allowing the experience to count instead of requiring an actual CNA certification. (Ho...
  10. NCLEX RN tomorrow

    Best of luck to you! And feel free to ignore the negative comments... A prepared person is a prepared person, and it doesn't matter what day of the week they take their test. If the fail rate is actually higher for Mondays (and I have never heard suc...
  11. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    Hi davismom - I am not aware of a single hospital, anywhere in California, that is offering any loan forgiveness to a new grad at this time. I can't imagine that there is one. (If anyone finds out different, please post.) The California market is...
  12. Stanford and Lucile Packard 2011 RN Residency

    For anyone still waiting, I just got a call today to set up a phone appointment for next week. I have to admit that I had pretty much given up on this one. Good luck to everyone!
  13. IL licensure by endorsement

    I just spoke with the Illinois Department of Professional Regulation with questions regarding licensure by endorsement, and thought I would post the info here in case it is of use to others. (I spent 1.5 hours redialing to get past the busy tone,...
  14. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    The clinical locations pretty much change each semester. (However, there are some people who wind up being at UC Davis Med Center for pretty much everything, but that's just luck of the draw.) There is some opportunity for you to have a little bit of...
  15. Case Study Presentation

    Did the faculty really give you no more direction than this? (Such as length of presentation, etc.) There are different ways to go about a case study presentation, so determining the overall scope of the project is the first step in determining what ...
