   apozepam replied to cdu22's topic in New Nurse

   Great question. I had the same concern when I was completing nursing school and preparing to sit for the NCLEX. The best advice is to echo what previous users have stated -- do your research and know your area. My situation was unique in that I was ...

3. Attire for interview

   apozepam replied to nurse2033's topic in Men

   I think nice dress pants or a conservative skirt with a nice blouse and decent shoe is perfect! However, I agree with Esme12 -- easy on the makeup and, since you're in nursing, ensure your nails are well groomed (nothing too flashy or extremely long ...

   apozepam replied to nurse2033's topic in Men

   I agree -- coupled with a good shirt and shoes, a nice, tailored suit can go a long way. What you described is my standard interview attire, and some friends can't believe I go "all out." However, I, too, have been complemented by interview panels an...

   Twinmommy+2, I assume you've completed the RN-BSN at AMU/APUS now. I wanted to know if you would still recommend the program to others. I have a BS in another field and a MPH, but I'm trying to cover my bases with the Institute of Medicine's recommen...

   I tested last Thursday. 75 questions in a little over 2 hours. I utilized the Pearson Vue trick when I left the testing center and received the "good" pop-up window, which stated that I recently scheduled the NCLEX exam and another registration could...
