  1. Novant New Grad Interview Day

    NewYorkerGirl replied to NewYorkerGirl's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Go to their website. You send your resume, and they send you an invite if you match their criteria. It's not open to the public, you need an invite. It's October

  2. Tips 'n Tricks: Pearls the Newbies Need to Know

    NewYorkerGirl replied to Music in My Heart's topic in Emergency

    I'm a newbie, but I've already learned the values of nursing shoes. The blood wipes right off! I was drenched by a trauma patient while transferring him from the ER. I was so glad I wasn't in my $140...

  3. Where should a new grad BSN move?

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

    Military men are not my type at all. Also, I don't think a New Yorker like me would do well in Texas. I looked at a hospital in rural Vermont, but housing seemed to be impossible (no affordable...

  5. Where should a new grad BSN move?

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

  6. WA Nclex results?

    NewYorkerGirl replied to NewYorkerGirl's topic in Washington Nursing

    Hey Wilyummy, Thanks! I can't move to WA until I have a job. I'm stuck living with relatives while I'm unemployed. I have a job interview in North Carolina next month, so WA better hurry up before...

  7. Penn State Residency: Hershey Medical Center 2015

    NewYorkerGirl replied to NewYorkerGirl's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I received an e-mail asking me to complete the questionnaire. I don't know what this is, and I don't see it on the website. Am I missing something? I wrote an e-mail back, but haven't received...

  8. Vanderbilt Nurse Residency 2015

    NewYorkerGirl replied to MrsMc's topic in School, College Programs

    I precepted in trauma step-down (in between med-surg and ICU) at a trauma center, but that wasn't an option so I went with the closest: adult acute. I would have loved NICU, peds or women, but I don't...

  9. Swedish Nurse residency- jan-feb cohort 2015

    NewYorkerGirl replied to walad's topic in Washington Nursing

    I e-mailed the recruiters today, and was told they haven't started scheduling interviews yet. There's still

  11. NCLEX-RN "select all that apply"

    NewYorkerGirl replied to Kllowe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think we had the exact same test. I took mine Monday and passed in 75, so it looks good for you. The only thing I used my white board for was to tally my

  12. NCLEX-RN "select all that apply"

    NewYorkerGirl replied to Kllowe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Absolutely! SATA are much easier on NCLEX than the Kaplan ones. I'm glad they made the Kaplan ones so hard, because on NCLEX I was thinking, "Of course not!" or "Definitely!" whereas on the practice...

  13. Hospitals not accepting entry level nurses, new grads. What to do?

    NewYorkerGirl replied to sheenmarie26's topic in Nevada Nursing

  16. Where should a new grad BSN move?

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

    The problem is I went to school in FL and can't stand to live there one more minute, so my connections are useless. Rural towns are fine as long as they're not in FL.

  19. Those who have used Kaplan!

    NewYorkerGirl replied to wsoxgirl2008's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't take 6 or 7. My 1-5 scores were in the 50's and 60's. I passed NCLEX 75 q first try. I found NCLEX to be easier than the

  20. Passing the NCLEX :)

    NewYorkerGirl replied to honeydewnyc's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I complained to Kaplan about incorrect and outdated information. For example, they said an RH+ and an Rh- couple can't have an RH- baby. This isn't true due to recessive genetics. My grandparents were...

  21. Just took NCLEX-RN

    NewYorkerGirl replied to USFnurse89's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good luck! I thought I had a lot of SATA with 31, but 50-something is crazy! USF had a 92% pass rate, so I'm sure you did well (I just graduated from USF this August, maybe we had classes together)....

    NewYorkerGirl posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi, I know there's no way of knowing if I passed or not until either my license posts or I get a letter about failing, but I just have to ask... My computer shut off at 75 questions. I had 31 select...
