  4. Where should I buy my interview clothes?

    meeks123 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I'm pretty clueless about this because as most new nurses, I have not been interviewed for a "professional" position thus far. I wore casual wear for my current non-professional position. In Nursing...

    meeks123 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  10. Critique my resume

    meeks123 replied to meeks123's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    They are minor skills, but a lot of nurses in my program haven't even performed NG suctioning or hung up the tube feedings, or hung up piggyback meds... I was able to do that in my last semester at my...

  11. Critique my resume

    meeks123 replied to meeks123's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Yes, that's what I was thinking, I hear short and to the point, but to me it doesn't sound like it matches the whole resume. I was thinking of one of these two: Spanish – Expert Fluency Proficient...

    meeks123 replied to quintishaf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Depending on how long it takes to get a CNA, it could be a waste of time and money, or not. From my quick reading that I read online a couple of minutes ago, I think it would be a good choice. It...

    meeks123 replied to NursingRN3's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Have you done the Pearson Vue Trick, they have a youtube video on how to do it. I'm sure you passed, if you had 265 questions is because the NCLEX had faith in you and let you made up others that you...

    meeks123 replied to Nicole21's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I know school takes a lot of time. I've studied for my NCLEX while working full time, but work is work, I find school/homework more stressful than just working at my same old job of five years. My tip...

    meeks123 replied to laluxe's topic in General Students

    meeks123 replied to Sharmi RN-BSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I used Hurst online review, and I think that is good "tutoring" per say for content. They also answer your nursing questions quickly supposedly, I never used it, so I can't say. I believe Hurst would...
