I'm interviewing for a new grad job on the adult critical care unit. Can experienced nurses share some of the most common meds used on this unit? Much appreciated!

I'm one of those who is having a tough time finding a job in this economy. I have a BSN, I live in CA, no prior medical experience but I'm coming from the tech field. I did my preceptorship at Stanford Hospital, have looked for jobs ALL over CA, Neva...

has anyone heard back from SM adult icu?

i think my problem with these interviews is that i know enough about how hard the california market is for new grads that i walk in freaked out and it shows. i've been looking up and down the state for 1.5 years and it is very hard to beam confidenc...

majesticred thanks whatever you did it definitely worked you beat out a lot of tough competition

MrNurse2011 congrats! how do they do 2nd interviews if you don't live in LA? if you haven't heard back already about a 2nd interview should you assume rejection?

krx100 did you interview in april also? did you get that position and have to defer til 2012? what do you think helped you? any tough clinical questions?

majesticred congrats! where are you moving from? where is wv? did you have any previous icu experience? what do you think you did during the interview that made you stand out?

i'm sure part of it has to do with those budgets

wow! only 4 hires on med surg. am i the only one who finds these cutbacks depressing? cedars is also cutting and will not have a new grad program this spring. they have decided to have it only once a year. another impossible hurdle for new nurses. it...

Has anyone been asked clinical questions in an interview they couldn't answer? how did you overcome this? could you overcome this? it's the new grad dilemma. you can't find work and get experience and the longer you are out of school the further remo...

wow! you are great. thank you!

I spent $30 on this book. It really was not helpful It didn't provide anything that I'm not already trying. The problems we are having have nothing to do with HOW we are looking for jobs. A great resume/linkedIn profile/etc is not going to help. The...

Hi all, I recently got called in for an interview at one of the top hospitals for a new grad nursing position. I graduated from nursing school in May 2010, have applied to hundreds to places, and still haven't landed a job. So the interview is a big...

Stcroix did you get full ROM back? Did you have a rotator cuff tear that needed to be sewn back together? thanks

MandaRN94 Wow! This happened back in '94 in CA. Do you know how many years it took for the market to turn around and for hospitals to start hiring new grads again? was is 2 years? 5 years? 7 years?

So many great stories! jessRN6896 you must have had an amazing interview to beat those numbers. It's hard for me to maintain a high degree of enthusiasm when I am so nervous during these interviews...i'm just praying i can make it through and not scr...

the idea of creating business cards while in school is a very good one. thanks for sharing.

is there anyone from California who has a story to share about how they got their job as a new grad? It definitely seems that certain parts of the country are a lot less impacted. Wish I could up and move for a year but it isn't possible.
