  1. university of maryland RN - BSN

    Good luck! One of the best nursing programs in the country.
  2. Accepted an offer but got a better one...burning bridges!?

    Best advice was given from missladyrn, so please take heed. I just want to say, I wish I was in your position one year ago! Three offers without graduating or passing boards yet AND accepted your #1 choice at a great hospital! You are very bless! Be...
  3. New Grad/RN opportunities??

    Wouldn't hurt to call them back! My suggestion: apply any and everywhere! Good luck
  4. Socks and Sanita Clogs

    I would suggest wearing it with socks. If after a couple of hours (and if time permits), if they are not comfortable, take them off. Congrats on your new Sanita. I just bought some purple patent dansko and can not wait to start wearing mine. :)
  5. Prince georges hospital center

    All I know if you can work at PG Hospital, you can work anywhere. Pt ratio is not the greatest. I've heard of 6 pts on the mother and baby unit as well close to 1:7 on Non ICU floors. But supposedly University of Maryland Medical System has bought/pa...
  6. New Grad/RN opportunities??

    Hope the phone screening went well! Good luck!
  7. New Grad/RN opportunities??

    Yes ciku03, the recruiter will call you with some standard interview questions: Why virginia hospital center? Why did you apply to this particular unit? your experiences? Good luck!
  8. Help -- Should I call again?

    Patience is a virtue for a reason. Congrats!!!
  9. Help -- Should I call again?

    Nothing wrong with calling/e-mailing on the status of your interview/job offer. I would do it
  10. Got an interview, now waiting for some type of information back.

    I'm going through the same issues. It'll be 2 weeks from my last interview since I last heard from anyone and I'm becoming doubtful. I guess the best thing to do is continue to be persistent and call HR until SOMEONE gives you some type of answers. A...
  11. 2nd interview - how long before they make a decision?

    Sorry you didn't get the position. Not getting the dream job you think you want hurts but I always try to tell myself that the entire experience will better prepare me for the right position for me. Good luck!
  12. Inova Health System

    Congrats! When did you find about your employment and start date? I think some have already started this month.
  13. Inova Health System

    Wow Congrats! that's exciting. I heard they had 2 different set of interviews for the same position. Are you from the first set?
  14. Inova Health System

    Does anyone have any information on the EPIC Project Inova is doing? From the job posting they're hiring nurses to teach the new EMR system to the other clinicians part of the Inova family and then work as a nurse or be oriented as a new nurse
  15. Good luck! Hope they call you in very soon for an interview and offer!
  16. Applying for MD RN license

    Congrats on graduating! Good luck on NCLEX. When ever you come to MD, go to Baltimore to the MDBON. That's the ONLY way you'll get answers. Forget e-mails, phones, SOS or doves. With MDBON, everything is better done face to face.
  17. Anne Arundel Medical Center (AAMC)

    Has anyone who applied to their new grad fellowship in March, heard anything back from them? I went to the nurse career fair yesterday (pointless unless you are an experience nurse) and was able to talk to the recruiter. She said they are heavily int...
  18. Washington Hospital Center

    You may find it better if you made your own thread on Providence hospital but Congrats. Good luck.
  19. Moving to the DC metro area as a new grad and need pointers :)

    Wow, I'm impressed with your credentials. I believe you may be lucky to find a job after graduating. Try INova Fairfax, Washington Hospital Ctr (July residency). Getting a license in DC is easy as long you go in PERSON. Maryland license is the devil!
  20. New Graduate RN in Maryland

    It's rough out here. Seriously! At this point it's not what you know, what ratio of the class you graduated in but WHO you know. I'm starting to feel like this area is diluted with RNs. In my graduated class, it was said I was competing for a job wit...
  21. Anne Arundel Medical Center (AAMC)

    Wow. Of Next year?! lol What happened to October of this year?! That's insane. From what the recruiter told me, a lot of their applications were in house. @rwc2293 were you able to apply at all?
  22. Minority Nurse at Georgetown University Hospital

    @multitask and steward3, thanks for those input. Glad you guys are both in happier environments. How long is GT residency program?
  23. Washington Hospital Center RN Residency February 2012

    where do you live cause traffic and commute will be tough either way unless you live in either city. The pay is much better at WHC but having John Hopkin's on your resume will land you a job anywhere you go for the rest of your life. With that being ...
  24. Confused

    Not to be nosey but was this a position for the ER? Sorry about that though. You not getting that particular position may be a blessing in disguise.
  25. Anne Arundel Medical Center (AAMC)

    If it hasn't been 6 month since you graduated, apply to Hopkins. The pay is not the greatest (salaried) but even 6 months at Hopkins on your resume, will give you any job in the world. I agree on traffic. You will have to leave your house at 5am, jus...
