  2. What's a fair salary for a NEW RN GRAD?

    psycheab replied to ArmyTwin's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Just wondering what the hiring climate is like for new graduate nurses in the Cherry Hill area. Is it highly competitive/may take 6 months or longer to find a job? Possibly moving to NJ because of...

    psycheab replied to Nonnifers's topic in Government, Military

    I was in your shoes roughly 6 years ago (wow, it's already been 6 years.) Um, I was in my last semester of nursing school when hubby got orders for Japan. I graduated in May, took NCLEX in June, and...

  4. Air Force Nursing 2013

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

    Thank you for your response! I need to first lose about 25 lbs to "make weight" for my height and then I would want to do as you suggested, lose an additional 5-10 pounds just to be sure. I'm already...

  5. Air Force Nursing 2013

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

    Just looking for some clarification, as I'm still learning some of the jargon. By Clinical nurse boards, do you mean for those going in that already have some experience? I was looking to apply to go...

  6. Air Force Nursing 2013

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

    I'm fairly sure -- I was on the Air Force website and selected Healthcare Recruiter and searched for the one that I thought might be the most accessible from my current location. He is in LA, so I'm...

  7. PCS orders Air Force Wife

    psycheab replied to panchie2me's topic in Government, Military

    The first place would be usajobs.gov. Unfortunately, right now there is a hiring freeze. Do you have any experience? We had PCSed to Japan right after I passed NCLEX and wasn't qualified because I...

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

  10. Air Force Nursing 2013

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

    We are in Korea -- there are opportunities to work at military clinics/hospitals, but they strongly desire people with at least 1 year experience, something I lack. And that was also the first...

  11. Air Force Nursing 2013

    psycheab replied to JillyRN's topic in Government, Military

    Okay, so I know I need to be patient, but I'm wondering -- when you first contacted a recruiter about applying (AF nursing) did they get back to you right away? (In another thread) I posted that I'd...

  12. Air Force Nursing questions

    psycheab replied to psycheab's topic in Government, Military

    Thank you both for your replies. I have sought out one of the Healthcare Recruiters and emailed him regarding Air Force nursing. I know it is a long and selective process, but this is something I had...

  14. Current job market in Northern Utah? Looking to relocate from MD!

    psycheab replied to KMRN81's topic in General Nursing

  15. Current job market in Northern Utah? Looking to relocate from MD!

    psycheab replied to KMRN81's topic in General Nursing

    Do you have any experience? If not, I've got some bad news for you my friend. I hate to sound discouraging, but I looked for a job for a long, long time and must have applied to hundreds of jobs....

    psycheab posted a topic in Government, Military

    Completed nursing school in 2007 (Associate degree.) The Air Force then promptly sent us (my husband is the Active Duty member, I'm a dependent) to Japan where I couldn't work at the base hospital...

  17. Federal Nursing Jobs and that 1 year of experience...

    psycheab posted a topic in Government, Military

    In just about every RN job that I've come across for military installations, they have all indicated "Must have 1 year experience." Can anybody tell me if there is a loophole or a way around this?...

  18. Federal Nursing Jobs and that 1 year of experience...

    psycheab replied to psycheab's topic in Government, Military

    Yeah, I've applied to many nursing homes in the area, too. Hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, schools, home health, county health departments, dialysis centers, plasma collection agencies...I know you...

  19. Retaking NCLEX

    psycheab posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    A little backstory. I graduated with my ASN in May 2007 and passed NCLEX the first time in July 2007. Due to a variety of reasons (moving, having babies, moving again) I've not worked and therefore,...

  20. New Grads/RNs without any work for almost a year now

    psycheab replied to spiderman101's topic in Texas Nursing

    RN2BDFW, I guess I should have been more specific as my husband could potentially relocate to San Antonio. So, does the hiring forecast for SA seem to match what is going on in the DFW area? Thanks...

    psycheab replied to spiderman101's topic in Texas Nursing

  22. New Grad feeling like a failure...

    psycheab replied to deathisastar13's topic in General Nursing

    I'm only going to copy and paste what I posted to an earlier thread... Oh, and if you aren't having any luck having your MASTERS, then I might as well just give up entirely and wait until the Air...

  23. GA RN license by endorsement

    psycheab posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm really confused and hoping for some clarification.... I currently hold a RN license in Utah. I haven't been able to work thanks to the MILLIONS, okay, maybe not millions, but it almost seems that...

  24. Travel Nursing and Licenses

    psycheab posted a topic in General Nursing

    This occured to me the other day... how do travel nurses work in other states? For instance, I have a friend who holds an Alabama RN license. She did some "travel nurse" work and went out to...

  25. Possible dilemma

    psycheab replied to LoveMyBugs's topic in General Nursing

    If this is what you want, and it sounds like it is, I would be finding someone to fill in for you at your son's summer camp. As soon as possible, too. You can also do the whole "Hey, if you need to...
