  1. Hey did anyone get a call for their new grad march cohort? If so, do you know what the interview process is like or what units they are hiring for?
  2. Certification Suggestions?

    Things like the NIHSS are free to get and show the employer you are willing to continue your education. ACLS, PALS, NRP and TNCC are all things I've seen the employers asking for in ER postings; however, they can get expensive. Most hospitals are ...
  3. Send Resume's Pre-Graduation?

    Most new grad programs that begin in August have application deadlines coming up beginning of march. So prepare your resume and start networking with the recruiters!!!
  4. Calling all new grads/new to the ICU starting Feb. 2013!!!!

  7. You'll be fine! Take a deep breath. And spend some time reviewing basic tasks you'll do like practicing a blood pressure on a family member. Honestly, they'll orientate you on all of the tasks and skills they want you to do- so just go in there wi...
  8. 8 Months Pregnant; New Grad; Interview

    They also legally can't make their decision based on you being pregnant. Don't mention it if they don't ask. It's not a legal reason to select or reject you. Be prepared with what you want though if they do ask. Like when you expect to be fully ...
  9. Need personal career advice!

    Honestly, I think you should go for it. As long as you talk to admissions and explain the reason for the poor performance at first, but how you've improved since ( ex:all a's in your last semester, or GPA before vs. GPA after personal problems) the...

  11. NICU INTERVIEW

    I made a little portfolio with a resume, cover letter and other documents I though they'd find interesting, then told handed them to people at the beginning of the interview. That way they could look at it if they wanted, and not if they chose not t...
  12. Got a job offer....

    From the way you describe it, I totally I agree. I'm a new grad too and know I can't be picky but don't want to lose skills just to ahve a job. Start networking at the hospital you want to work for/ the are you want to live in, but don't turn down t...
  13. Got a job offer....

    First of all, congrats on nearing the end of your undergraduate academic life :) How exciting!!! Secondly, do NOT quit your tech job before you have another job lined up with an actual start date- not just a verbal offer. Have learned this lesson t...

    Thanks! The recruiter told me that if selected the program will begin the 24th of march :)
  15. Providence little company of Mary 2013

    To be honest, this topic discussion was started for Providence Little Company of Mary- specifically Torrance. You might have better luck getting responses for your questions if you look at the Gardena topic, or starting one. People that applied t...

    And everyone else who has since responded to this thread :)
  17. Providence little company of Mary 2013

    Good luck at your interview tomorrow, ng03!!
  18. Select all that apply...??

    On my NCLEX I had about 30 or more select all that apply questions, so practice them now!! The best way I found for getting them right is to treat each answer as a true and false. Much easier than trying to figure out how many "right answers" are t...

  25. Providence little company of Mary 2013

    Ideally..I'd love to work er/icu or a step down floor. When I talked to him Tuesday he said the only units for sure thinking of hiring were medsurg tele and the float pool. Did you apply back in October too?
