I am set to start Sept 1 in the RN to MSN Leadership program. I'm am very excited and can't wait to begin. Only wish I'd started a few years ago.

I'm going for the RN to MSN in Leadership & Management with a start date of Sept. 1. Just waiting for my transcripts to be evaluated. Really excited for the most part but dreading statistics. I have a heaping pile on my plate right now but I can do this. The competency based model is perfect for my learning style. Go WGU Night Owls!

I can not mention it but I suppose I'll need to address it when I've moved across the country and have to update my address at some point. I don't want any issues coming up later.

I have my first phone appointment coming up Monday. I hope to enroll in the RN to MSN program and get my BSN if they have that option still available. This type of program will work well for me. I am currently employed but will be moving from my current state, FL, to NH soon. I will not be working from the move until I get a job in NH. I'm wondering if they will have an issue with that. I'm not expecting to be unemployed for long. I'm not picky and will work anywhere at first. Is the work requirement only to be accepted or must you be continually employed during enrollment?

This is all very helpful info. I started looking into updating my resume and was surprised to see that I've actually been a nurse for 8 years and not the 6 yrs. I wrote. I guess it just doesn't seem that long since nursing school. How time flies! I see on the DHMC website that most of their postitions show three salary ranges: $23.10 - $29.98 and $36.85. When I spoke to a recruiter there she said that with my experience I should be considered for around the midrange if I were to be hired. Do these salary ranges seem typical of other hospitals, clinics. etc. or is DHMC on the top end of salaries for NH?

Thanks for the info. I am already an RN for 6 years so I wasn't worried about applying for school. I just seem to have the bad timing of moving when the hiring is on a downswing. I am glad to know that DHMC is so big on BSN. I won't waste too much time chasing rainbows there. What are some other big hospitals which are hiring ASN? I have experience in Peds and Infectious Disease. Also I thought you still have to pay the same income tax to MA even though you live in NH. I had been thinking of working a VT hospital until I found out their income tax is 7.2% for my pay range. That would hardly be a deal. Thanks

I will be relocating to NH this year and really hoped to find employment at DHMC. Could anyone give me an idea of the present hiring climate. Is it very easy to get an RN job at present? I know that the pendulum swings back and forth and I wasn't sure if it was a buyer or seller's market in NH as far as the nursing field right now. Thanks for any imput.
