Hello new to practice prospects. My advice is to be patient but assertive! I know they are somewhat opposite but Temple can take a while to do things that are usually not as much of a wait! I am one of the new to practice nurses that was given the amazing opportunity in this new program and I love it!! So my advice be persistent but understanding and hang in there! I love Temple so far!! Good luck to everyone!!

The job I still have is an LTC facility. I applied to the hospital and it was over five months until it became official! This is the first time for the cohort to be permitted to train and work in the OR! Do not give up!! Your desire and persistence shines through!!! Good luck!!

I am a new nurse from Philly. I received my liscence in November of 2011 and I was just accepted into a new to practice cohort and the position I was offered was the OR!!!!! :) My dream job since nursing school!! I had to interview with HR and in front of a panel of NM and then in front of the OR team director educator and manager! It went fab and I will be starting in September! My only experience was LTC for 7-8 months!! I still am on cloud 9 and can not believe that this is real!! So it can happen!! Good things happen to those who wait!! If it was meant to be it will be!! Good luck!! Never give up your dream!! We work too hard!!!!
