    CP2013 replied to thatoneguyRN's topic in Nursing Career

    Thanks for the info. I did ask, they did say no, but she wasn't offended, in the least. But glad I at least tried. Usually the hospital pays for certs, but I came in with well over 6, so I thought...

    CP2013 replied to ExploreDreamDiscover's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  8. Why do Nurses tell students to go BSN??

    CP2013 replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    I just assume "rout" was a misspelling and ignored it...but then I found everything you said after "compair" just difficult to read because I couldn't get beyond the mistake. I understand that...

    CP2013 replied to Code09's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  13. Advice: first GN job

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    First hospital also doesn't have a "new grad" program. You basically just try to figure it out over 12 weeks or get fired. No wonder pay is attractive. They have to have some incentives.

    CP2013 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I have a verbal offer (pending paperwork, etc) for a job about an hour away from where I currently live. Pay is decent, differential amazing. I'd be making low $20's plus $12-15/hr in differentials...

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  20. Advice: first GN job

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume
