    Congrats on getting your interview! Hopefully you'll be posting some good news soon.
  2. Scared in Fresno

    So totally true! I followed this advice and it lessened the drama from DRAMA level to just drama. Unfortunately, Drama does not end in high school. Congrats OP. Have faith in yourself and you shall...
  3. The Ancient Ones

    Well said. I feel like this year, I've been to more funerals than other years... and it's only June. Out of the eight friends and family members' funerals that I've gone to this year, three of them...
  4. Are there really enough jobs???

    New grads are having a hard time finding jobs right now. That's the current reality,
  5. Pitiful. Oh, sure there's some people that are able to land jobs.... but compared to the unemployed new grads (and experienced nurses) that don't have jobs... Blah. Good luck on your job

    If by Phil, you mean the Philippines, just know that the CA BoN is cracking down and rejecting NCLEX applications if the classes are not concurrent - lecture and clinical at the same time. Check the...

  8. CHOC August 2012 New Grad Program

    Maybe there's funding issues. Last time around, the board was active with replies... this time, it seems very quiet. So, perhaps they've had to cut back on the number of positions this
  9. Nursing in Southern Cali

    Search for local hospitals (SD)'s websites and see if they have (a lot of) openings. That could be a starter to gauge whether or not they are hiring experienced nurses. Good

    What I do is hit the "reply" button. Then I look at the e-mail address it's going to. You can tell which hospital it
  11. Memorial Care Org

    Blah. I think Memorial just doesn't like my applications. Fifth time I've applied. Unfortunately for me, I already received my rejection e-mail (yay!) Best of luck to you! Hopefully, the fourth time...
  12. New grad programs a new thing?

    New Grad programs are essentially a residency for new grad nurses. New Grads get a mix of clinical hands-on experience and lecture. Basically, it's to make sure that New Grads have time to become...
  13. CHOC August 2012 New Grad Program

    Congrats! I don't think anyone on this board has been interviewed with that dept. Or maybe they are lurking.
  14. Want to be NP... about to give up.

    Don't give up hope. If you've got the passion for it, do

    May isn't over yet! Do not give up
  16. CHOC August 2012 New Grad Program

    I don't think so. Or if they have/are, maybe those people aren't on the message boards. Hang in
  17. Interviewing...When they say that HR will call you...

    Hang in there. Just remember, at least you are getting interviewed. Lots of new grads can't even get past HR, despite being full of awesome-ness on their resume/paper. Good

    I know NICU is practically almost-there done. They already started interviews and offering jobs/employing people. CVICU has some action. The other departments are taking their sweet

    For some people, it's a financial aspect. MSN = more debt than
  24. CHOC August 2012 New Grad Program

    They were on the new site for a few hours. But, not all the departments were listed. Now, there's nothing listed. It's very confusing. Someone posted earlier that you just go to the new site and post...

    Maybe it's CHOC's version of twitter. And they're probably thinking, hey! we're giving you 10 extra characters to work
