Hello! I just landed my first job in a Boston hospital and I was wondering whats the most efficient way to get into the city? I was going to take the train into north station but looking at the schedule I wouldn't get to the hospital on time for my 7...

I have an interview at BI Monday. I have done research on what the interview entails and just about everyone says the NM asks '5 standard HIPAA and pt safety questions they absolutely have to ask'.... ?? Can anyone give me insight on what to expect d...

This post is kind of late, but I am a Umass Lowell grad and just landed my first job at a Boston hospital with no connections needed. Most of my clinicals were in Boston! I highly recommend the school, it's an amazing nursing education that is well k...

I'm on Farr 9 on their west campus!!

Thanks for your good vibes everyone! I got the job offer this morning and couldn't be more excited!!!

Thank you so much!! It was an entry level position for clinical nurse I. I hope I get it, waiting is so hard!!

Thanks for replying!! Congrats on getting the job! My interview went well and they requested references a few hours after my interview so fingers crossed I get it! I find out this week hopefully! They interviewed a lot of candidates and I was intervi...

I got through four years of nursing school without a car! It's totally doable. What I did what arranged to carpool with my fellow clinical mates and it was no problem. In fact everyone carpooled really, and pitched in now and then for gas money. Espe...

Ok-so new BSN grad here. :) After months of applying for jobs I finally get an interview at a large teaching hospital for a new grad residency. Interview goes great- HR calls shortly after my interview and tells me the nurse manager wants to move for...

I used nclex mastery to study for my nclex. I completed the whole app, it was very helpful. The questions are very similar to nclex and in my opinion more challenging. I also would recommend doing the free trial of lippincotts pass point online. It's...

Thank you all for your replies!! I appreciate it, but I found out today I did not get the job. I know 100% having one duplicate IP address reference was the deciding factor in not hiring me, what a shame. I'm pretty bummed out, but will continue my j...

You have to click submit to have the trick work. Once you click it the "good pop up" will say it can't have you register again. If it takes your money after you click submit that's the bad pop up. Hope this helps!! Good luck!

I wouldn't worry! When I set up the skills survey thingy, my references took two days to complete it. I think they are more patient with this form of collecting references, because having someone reply to an email is a lot slower than actually callin...

I just wanted to share my experience with you all since I have come to this site for advice/guidance on how to pass Nclex many times.. I took my nclex with 88 questions in MA june 30th and found out I passed today! I took a 5 day review course (I nee...

Are hospitals are hiring new grads in Mass these days? I have heard that the job market has gotten a little better, and this summer is a big one for nurses to retire. Then I keep hearing not many hospitals hire new grads unless you have an 'in' as an...

What about those who have BSN? Has the job market gotten easier for BSN's to work in a hospital as a new grad? I have read some articles saying that a nursing shortage is coming for Summer 2015 due to nurses retiring around that time. I'm trying to g...

Yes, I will have a BSN. I have heard Holy family, Catholic Medical Center in Manchester and the Eliot are hiring new grads. I keep hearing the job market is improving for nursing, I just need some more insight.

The thing that helped me out the most for anatomy was watching YouTube videos on everything. Seriously. YouTube had a video on literally everything dealing with anatomy and explains it with visuals and detail. Try it out, plus it made my studying eas...

Microbiology and anatomy are very similar study-wise. I think you'll do great taking on both of them at the same time. I just took micro and anatomy last semester and it is possible to take them together! Good luck :-)
