Hello, I am looking at choosing between working with an insurance company or a reputable hospital. Can anyone compare from experience?

Which did you enjoy more? They seem to both have their benefits. I'm torn between wanting face to face patient interaction and interaction with colleagues, vs the possibility of more autonomy and remote work with the insurance. I don't like to get ...

- does anybody have any info on this agency or experience with them? - can anyone recommend a reputable agency to work for?

I think the key to being successful in the nursing interviews is to practice. It's your one big chance do you don't want to blow it. Be ready with an answer for every question that they throw at you. This helped me tremendously, but I had to put the...

One week, if you get a good response, follow up again in a few days.

There seems to be a whole range of people looking for interview help, ranging from very basic things, to more complex questions. These were helpful to me for the most basic interview/application things. For the more clinical questions that are aske...

here's the situation. for the most part, we've always gotten along as a team and take pride in our work. recently, the workload has been getting more demanding and my team, particularly the nurse aides, seems to be falling apart. i try my best to b...

So after getting my RN then finally BSN, I have finally after three years landed a hospital job in a less than desirable facility. But knowing the current economy and job market, I know I really really need to make this work and stick it out. I'm t...

Most desirable hospitals prefer BSN. But it is possible, probably in south jersey or in the mountains. I had my ADN for a few years and got one job offer at Capital Health while I was working on my BSN. I declined the offer at the time, attempted ...

homecare. night shift.

interviewed for a homecare institution. starting pay: $73,000. $1000 for each year of RN experience, extra $1000 for BSN, extra($???) for certification. not a bad deal.

What is it that you disagree with? I don't believe I said anything remotely untrue. Getting your BSN is crucial to getting a job in most hospitals because many are or are striving for Magnet status. If you have a ton of experience with only an asso...

i believe there is a 2 year contract. but don't quote me on that..

Get your BSN. Hospitals won't even LOOK at you without one, unless by chance you have years of experience in your specialty, and even if you did (but you won't because you will be a new grad), they would still require you to get your BSN within X amo...

- most nj hospitals are not for profit organizations, but the trend of becoming for profit facilities is growing. - can anybody share experiences about the difference between working for the two? i find that most of the information i've found has be...

if i could only get that one golden year of med/surg... envy is my sin.

that is insane!!!! hahahha sadly, it has piqued my interest. do they guarantee you a job afterwards?

which two hospitals called you back? i got my rn in 2010 and just finished my bsn last month. i am also ny licensed. as far as hospitals go, back in 2010, i had my hopes up and only got one call from the hospital of special surgery in manhattan, bu...

- recently someone turned me onto the idea of moving to OZ to work as a nurse. i'm trying to move out of the country to live somewhere else for a little while (i also recently got my TESOL so i can teach english in other countries). so ive been read...

aside from acute care.. would it be much easier to find work in aged care? or sub acute? im really just looking to be able to earn income and live out of the US for a little while...

as for practical advice.. if you want a job, youll have to move to a more remote area that has a much less competitive job market. america is toilet bowl status. stinky toilet bowl.

its pretty funny... well not really.. but as an associates RN (former LPN), im overqualified to push a med cart, but underqualified to be a supervisor. I've been to a handful of these interviews.. pretty strange.. i didn't wait too long after i got ...

- i gave up on nyc.. and the one place that finally hired me was a nursing home that had me running out the door.. literally and figuratively.. - i am bored to death of sub acute/ltc.. i need a more challenging job.. any alternative suggestions?

most of the people here are nurses that dont have jobs or are having a very hard time getting jobs.. if u had your dream job working in a hospital making $xxx,xxx a year with 4 days off a week.. u have no reason to troll these boards because theres ...
