    ann915 posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've been on here. A lot has changed since then, and I've been working as a nurse for almost 3 years now. But to make things short, I am now currently working in...

    ann915 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

  4. How to deal with angry doctors

    ann915 replied to ann915's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thank you for the encouraging words :) Yeah. I felt the comment where he threatened to "beat my head" was a bit uncalled for - totally didn't see that coming :/. There were a few cranky doctors I've...

  7. New Grad Starting on Telemetry - Some questions

    ann915 replied to ann915's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Yeah. I agree. It's really nerve-wrecking - I'm here with you and many new graduates out there. But, when in doubt, we just got to hang in there and maintain a positive attitude - and tell ourselves...

  11. Dameron Hospital

    ann915 replied to USARN1's topic in California Nursing

    I haven't heard anything back yet for a second interview either. I remember them saying that if we were selected for the second one, we'd hear back in a week or two. That was a week ago during my...

  14. El Camino New Grad

    ann915 replied to skp27's topic in California Nursing

    Is this the e-mail message asking for supplemental information to mail to them: transcripts, the 2 essays, letters of recommendation, copy of RN license, etc? I just got one from them too, and am in...

    ann915 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  17. What do hospitals mean by or consider as "experience"?

    ann915 replied to ann915's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  19. What do hospitals mean by or consider as "experience"?

    ann915 replied to ann915's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    That's what I was thinking too, but wasn't sure because some tell me I should put my clinical experience down, and some say don't put it down. Thank you for your response though. I really appreciate...
