We got a flashlight with the hospital logo on it lol

This is my pet peeve. I'm happy to tell the upcoming nurse of any abnormal lab value, but when they ask me what every single lab value is??? Ugh!! look it up like I did. Needless to say I work the day shift. Then when I tell them that I don't know exact #, however I know it's WNL, they tell me not to worry they'll look it up. Really?

Their pay is horrible $16/hr no mileage reimbursement. I guess it's better than not being employed and not using your nursing skills.

Hahaha hilarious

Perhaps you might be able to stay PRN at your current job while working the part time hospital job (If you get an offer). Another option for you is to stay at your current job while you search for a hospital job that is full time.

I'm a new grad (April 2012) and I've been offered 3 jobs and have officially accepted an offer. . I have no nursing or medical experience. I tried getting in somehow by being a PCT but had no luck. How did I land a job? I took job searching very seriously. I spend hours upon hours perfecting my resume and applying to hundreds of jobs each day and receiving rejection letters each day. I was not picky on what floor or facility and I was willing to commute up to 1 hour for a job. Yes it's hard to find a job as a new grad. I've been aware of this ever since nursing school. I kept applying and thankfully a small hospital hired me for their medical unit and this hospital is only 30 mins away. Bottomline dont' give up, keep applying, once you land the interview be prepared for it, and eventually you will land a job. Be persistent and don't give up.

Wow that sounds awesome!

I'm in Florida, New RN Grad. I interviewed with PSA. They actually want to pay me $16.00/hr, no reimbursment for gas, and training is like $8.00/hr. The sad part is that I'm having such a hard time finding a job that I might take them up on their offer for the experience until I can find something better : (
