OK... so there are no words for how frustrated I am today. I want to scream into a pillow. Or something else generally "therapeutic"... but first some background- I graduated my ADN program May 11, 2012. I have had a hell of a time just getting to g...

That is what I have always done - you have to really think about it before spending. Back to the nursing shortage that doesn't exist - I'm really tired of arguing with people who think nursing is "recession proof"

That's it - pass the popcorn... if I didn't JUST get a new grad job I wouldn't be able to in that case, bcause they would weed me out based on credit without ever knowing that it was because my husband left me the 1st day of nursing school with two k...

After much hard work, I managed to secure interviews with a hospital and an urgent care center. I have a second interview scheduled with the urgent care center tomorrow, but the hospital called me today and made a much better offer ($5 more per hour,...

Thanks Gitano, it's not a bad gig at all. I am one happy and slightly exhausted new grad! I worked my rear off just trying to get interviews here in DFW!

Thank You! :hug:

Just wanted to update! I accepted the position at THR Denton today! GN Internship (even though I already passed my boards) with 2 yr contract on Med/Surg unit. I am so relieved!

I can back that up - my significant other's family came to NYC from Russia (well, Belarus) in 1980, when he was two. They are very amazing at cultural networks. If you have a problem my eventually-to-be mother in law can find you a Russian to fix it....

I am so stinkin happy... my cheeks hurt from smiling

Thank you all for responses. I do have in my hands the contract paperwork between the hospital & I, (2 year GN Internship contract) am set to sign it, drug test, and health screen next week with a start date of July 16, 2012. Ashley PICU RN - I ...

Just a heads up from a DFW new grad - many of us are giving up on being L&D/NICU nurses, me included. It was my dream to be a CNM, but the truth is the market here is so saturated that nurses are scrambling for whatever they can get. WIth 3 years...

I read that too - and laughed....

I hope so. Just applied with Bureau of Prisons for the local women's correctional medical facility too.

Happy to say everything is looking up. Second interview with CareNow on Friday, don't want to commit too soon in case THR offers, any words of wisdom there?

THR!! By far, they have the most hospitals I'm pretty sure.. I could be wrong lol

I recently updated my resume after many suggestions from some of you on my last post. I would like to see what you think of the changes I made and openly welcome ConCrit of the resume. I removed my previous employment because it was very honestly irr...

Well everything went well with the interview, with the exception of my phone ending up next to my altoids case and buzzing loudly...twice... I handled it with as much couth as I could, with the interviewer apologizing to me as well for her desk phone...

Here it is with changes: Jamie E. Glaze, RN address phone * email Education May 2012 ***** College - Fort Worth, TX Associate of Applied Science in Nursing May 2005 *****- Mansfield, TX High School Dipl...

I have another interview tomorrow with an urgent care clinic, it is $18.50/hr plus shift diff of +$4.50 after 5pm Mon-Fri and +$7.00 on weekends. I am not so concerned with how much $$ as much as stable and reliable work that will pay the bills. The ...

They pay flat rate. Same for LVN & RN, no negotiation. =( @Tothepointe - I will PM you.

Well, I took the job since I have no money, but this place honestly creeped me out. It's Continuous Care Hospice staffing and it is either home or inpatient, wherever they send me. 12 hour shifts, but no guarantee that there will be work. $20/hr as a...

Interview with a hospice/continuous care staffing agency tomorrow. So far the other end of the spectrum from OB (my passion) but it's money and using my education. Wish me luck. Down to the last few dollars in the bank.

i guess all that "irrelevant experience" we new grads have is not so irrelevant - i wouldn't be caught dead with even painted fingernails (who knows how many microscopic chips there could be for bacteria to hide in), much less fake nails! so sorry to...

NOt a happy camper, just had to turn down a job offer because of my custody agreement with ex...

Does anyone have any creative ideas to get around the fact that I have been a stay at home mom for 5 years?? I hardly think if my clinical skills are irrelevant as many say, that listing "Homemaker" will help... I have massive holes in my resume bec...
