Hi everyone, I'm currently going through the prescreening process for an inpatient psych job at Sharp Grossmont. I don't have a start date yet (to be determined by hr), but my urine drug screen came back invalid due to having large amounts of nitrite...

Even though I love psych, I ended up picking cardiac. I actually start June 1st. How long were you in ND for? Any decent places to live in the downtown area? I checked out the area via spotcrime.com and saw that it might be a rough neighborhood ne...

I might be going to Sanford on the cardiac progressive unit as well. Have 2 offers for cardiac & psych, not sure which I'll choose yet. I love psych but I also want a med/surg experience, too, since I'm starting out. Anyone have any experiences w...
Based on a previous post in this thread, I made the cut off. I applied at 8:42am. Honestly, I don't get it. I meet all the qualifications. Graduated in May 2011 with my BSN, completed an RN Refresher course this past May, and am IV certified, hav...

I took one this past spring and there were maybe half RNs and half LVNs in the class. They give you 4 CEs if you're an RN and I forget how many if you're an LVN, but more than 4. It's not in the Inland Empire though. It's at Grossmont Health Occup...
Hi, everyone. I graduated May 2011 and am wondering if I'm still considered a new grad, and at what point I'm no longer considered. I just took an RN Refresher course and completed it this past May. With the RN Refresher certificate, do I qualify ...

Thank you to everyone who responded. Helps to know that I'm still considered a new grad, but frustrated at the lack of job offers. Hopefully this is all just a temporary setback. I just recently got hired in retail and going through the initial 2 ...

I took it at Grossmont Health Occupations Center in Santee, CA. Best one in CA for the price ($400). And as far as I know, it's the only one that'll give you 192 hrs of clinicals at Kaiser. :) Highly recommended. Let me know if you can't find the...

Only RN experience I have is 5 months of Home Health, and that was Per Diem. So I guess, according to quite a few facilities, I'm still a new grad and will still be one if/when I reach the 3 year graduation mark. How frustrating this job hunt is.

Congrats to all who've gotten interviews! I submitted my app around 10:30-11am and my status was submission received. Then late last week sometime, my status changed to "no longer under consideration" while a friend from nursing school who graduated...
Hi everyone. I recently quit my Home Health job cause the job wasn't worth having due to not being paid enough (most of my income was going towards gas, supplies, and overtime minutes for my cell phone). While I had the job, I kept applying elsewhe...

No email or phone call yet for me either. I keep checking my status on the web site. I'm gonna be volunteering for a few hrs this afternoon, so that'll distract me a little bit. How's everyone else doing today? Hoping and praying the best for eve...

Are you 100% positive tele is hiring only internals? As of june 8th, my status changed to "under consideration" and I'm an external applicant. This is the furthest any of my UCSD apps have gone and not sure what to think of it. Good luck to those w...

I didn't send thank-you emails, but handed them a thank-you card instead at my interview on the 31st. I haven't gotten any response at all and starting to wonder if I stood out enough from everyone else. The interviewers made me feel completely at ...

So other than cuddling with our phones every night and wherever we go, are any of you also constantly checking the status of your app on scripps' website? 12 more days to go...hopefully they'll start calling a few days before the 20th.
