  2. Can't find a job. New Grad RN!

    Apply to anything and everything. CA is such a hard place to find a job. You're still a newer new grad, so chin up! You haven't been unemployed that long. Good
  3. how find OB course required by Board of Nursing?

    Good for you for taking the initiative and calling. There are a few schools that may start programs, but nothing is official yet. This situation is common, especially seeing all the threads popping...
  4. Do a quick search for schools on this forum. This thread is a a place to start: https://allnurses.com/nurse-registration/ca-schools-offering-806046.html So far, schools are not quite ready to open and...
  5. transferring NY RN license to CA license..

    Not many, if any. In the LA area, you are going to be competing against A LOT of new grads and semi-new grads (the ones that have less than a year of non-acute care experience.) Do join the fray...
  6. Interview attire

    And go easy on the scents - perfumes/cologne. I have heard horror stories about that one. Good luck on your
  7. Foreign NCLEX application in IL

    How so? Are your fingers not able to provide good prints (I know someone like that)? Are you not able to get the documents required to fingerprint? Do you not know what to fill out? More...
  8. No. CA is not a part of the compact states. Just because you have a license in a compact state does not give you an automatic in to CA. Each state has their own educational and other requirements you...
  9. Notes to take while waiting for THAT job.

    Very good idea. I have something similar to this. In mine is major diseases that I will see in my (future) job. And topics I had some problems in school go in my little notebook as well. Good luck...
  10. How to renew LVN license in CA for the first time?

    I'm pretty sure the Boards will snail mail you. You can then renew it online (at least for RNs you can; am assuming you can with LVN). The first time you renew, you do not need to worry about
  11. Clinical experience on resume?

    I do not know if you are eligible for some new grad programs, but a few new grad programs want you to list clinical experience, especially to see where you precepted. It does not hurt to put it on...
  12. need advise re: working in Canada or US

    Which state do you want to work in USA? Generally, each state has their own Board. Pick a state you want to live and work in and go to that state's website and find out the requirements to
  13. Oh, and another thing, on the TX BON, it says: "Must have been employed as a registered nurse during the past four (4) years (unless you have taken and passed the appropriate RN examination within...
  14. Like steppybay said, you need to have a SSN for CA BON to issue you your RN license. Just because you passed the NCLEX, does not mean you have the RN license. It just means you passed the test, but do...
  15. Apparently, there was a position up in Downey, that someone kindly posted on facebook. Too bad the position is already closed, if the rejection e-mail is any indication. Job hunting as a new grad...
  16. Didn't get the job

    At least you are getting practice with your interview skills.... better than some new grads that cannot land an interview. Good luck! Keep
  17. Looking for RN Job in california.

    Reading the various threads throughout the forum, you should realize that getting a job in CA is very, very difficult. You do not have any clinical experience, so you will be competing with the...
  18. Honestly, you have to apply to a lot of them to up your chances. A lot of the colleges are based on merit, lottery, or a combination of. Make sure you stand out (CNA course is a good start). Good...
  19. New Grad leaving NYC RN jobs to pursue CALI job?

    A lot of postings require one year of experience, so if you have one year of paid RN experience, it should be slightly easier than a fresh new grad with no experience. Start searching for jobs. It is...
  20. First off, it is not a new law if it has been "in the books" for many, many years. Second, please read the other threads in the Registration section of the forum. There are no official openings (i.e....
  21. Which areas are hiring?

    North Dakota, if you can stand the frigid, frigid temperatures. I know several SoCal New Grads went up there. I also saw a new grad position in El Paso, TX that someone posted on facebook, but El...
  22. There is a section for military (officer) nursing somewhere on the site. Check it out. Just know that not all branches of the military have openings all the time. It depends on their budgets. Good...
  23. Go to the Nurse Registration section and read the various threads there. There is one thread that lists the 13 states that are currently enforcing the concurrency issue. Another thing to consider is...
  24. Endorsement to Nevada

    Even though you are doing endorsement/reciprocity, each state has their own educational requirements, so the concurrency issue may be enforced. In the application for endorsement, a copy of the...
  25. 5th take but cali board is asking for requirements

    .... that doesn't look good ...... My friend reached the cc page and it turned out she failed. Granted, there is always hope. So, good
