  1. Do men really have a better shot at finding a job?

    CharlieTaco replied to mcpheenom's topic in Men in Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to Hime's topic in General Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to mb1949's topic in General Nursing

  5. New Graduate RN Seeking Employement

    CharlieTaco replied to WendyM816's topic in General Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to redsky's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    CharlieTaco replied to beatrice1's topic in General Nursing

    Every place you apply to will ask for your BLS card. They will expect you to bring it when you are interviewed and if you don't have it, you won't get hired. ACLS does not replace BLS and is not an...

    CharlieTaco replied to cph2213's topic in New York Nursing

  14. Wants to become a Nurse

    CharlieTaco replied to CrazyAnna's topic in New York Nursing

    If you want to be a nurse go for it but only do a BSN program. With your debt you can't afford to be a LPN or have a ADN which could hinder your job prospects. You should also only go to a state or...

    CharlieTaco replied to brooklynne's topic in New York Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to LoLane's topic in New York Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to new.grad's topic in General Nursing

    CharlieTaco replied to BSNRN15's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  22. Married RN Considering Career in Air Force
