  1. How do you apply to different CSU Nursing programs...

    zzbxdo replied to sandoom's topic in California Nursing

    Yes need to apply and be admitted to both the university and nursing

  2. Where can I find a Job outside of bedside nursing

    zzbxdo replied to freeasabird's topic in California Nursing

    I don't think case management requires much on top of your experience.. There are several new grads that go directly into it so its out there. Look into informatics/EMR ? You don't need your masters...

  3. Nursing salary not that useful to pay back loans?!

    zzbxdo replied to Summers3's topic in General Students

    HR does not do the hiring. The nurse manager or a unit committee usually does. Usually applications go through HR to be weeded out and then fed to the manager, thus your chances are greatly improved...

  4. NEW GRAD Having a hard time getting finding a job.

    zzbxdo replied to newbiegrad1's topic in California Nursing

    Positions must be posted to the public legally. With internal hires and transfers a position can be secured and then a post will go up. Edit: previous posts answer it

  5. FAILED nursing school. ;( Now what? Lvn program??

    zzbxdo replied to zoeland's topic in California Nursing

    Op has 1 post and never came back just so everyone

  6. Any Psychiatric Technicians in CA not finding jobs?

    zzbxdo replied to bflythuy's topic in California Nursing

    You're probably also gonna be the bottom feeder knowing that you haven't had experience or practice in nearly a decade in a half. That's like mega old new grad. Maybe look at assistant jobs at those...

  7. Hey everyone, I'm in need of advice.

    zzbxdo replied to DestiniH's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are physically fine to work as a RN. Don't expect to return to California to work if you plan to get your degree back in the Philippines, to be blunt. The brn is very strict now, a lot of...

  8. Sacramento RN wages??

    zzbxdo replied to neurogirl77's topic in California Nursing

    Well anywhere outside Washington where there isn't state taxes is gonna be high haha. On the top of my head my take home is about half. 15 percent went to retirement and 10% goes toward UC pension,...

  9. Motivation to workout - nursing student

    zzbxdo replied to kkernagh's topic in General Students

    Clean bulk while aiming to stay the same weight. Iono about you buy I felt like I had tons of time to train on a daily basis during

  10. ADN with a BA

    zzbxdo replied to dcwang's topic in California Nursing

    Your physiology teacher is behind the times I would think. That slowed down a little less than a decade ago. That may be true in other states, but not

  11. Moving to california

    zzbxdo replied to jcurrier79's topic in California Nursing

    Ah. I figured moving up north I can hop around the UCs first, get vested, go back to school and see from there. I ask cause I wouldn't mind working for Kaiser in northern California. Seems to be a...

  12. Moving to california

    zzbxdo replied to jcurrier79's topic in California Nursing

    Does Kaiser openly share their pension and stuff openly online? I always figured UC was among the better, even ever so slightly compared to the

  13. IV Start Class San Diego

    zzbxdo replied to OR Supernurse's topic in California Nursing

    I'm not a new grad but I'm still the noobie who can't get a piv. Only have the opportunity like once a month, we mostly have central and picc lines. If you have time to waste review material, not...

  14. Moving to california

    zzbxdo replied to jcurrier79's topic in California Nursing

    I know you stated that you just got a job at Kaiser, but can you compare your experiences between there and UCD when you get the opportunity? I'm not vested yet but wondering if it's worth moving on...

  15. Moving to california

    zzbxdo replied to jcurrier79's topic in California Nursing

    Just depends where you can go with your adn. UCD shows openly shows how much you would get paid but they'll hire BSN or if you're in a BSN bridge program. Cost of living isn't unreasonable

  16. Moving to california

    zzbxdo replied to jcurrier79's topic in California Nursing

    40 is quite deflated for a non new grad in the bay area in an acute setting. Region and demand vary greatly in this large state of California. Try to be specific in your searches op. Ucsf pays 50...

  17. How can I be taken more seriously?

    zzbxdo replied to Scuba_NurseBSN's topic in General Students

    Do your job, disregard of what others think of you. The gf is Asian, early 20s in a CCU but her patients love her. Be confident in your skill set as a RN when it's time. Your body language will say...

  18. I want to quit!!!!!

    zzbxdo replied to ChaeF's topic in General Students

    @op, doing whatever you want to do is good enough of an alternative. Just know that any business is risk, so long as you evaluate demand, have the social support and

  19. I want to quit!!!!!

    zzbxdo replied to ChaeF's topic in General Students

    Your telling her to suck it up for another 5 or so years. Not reasonable considering she's still a Jr in school, needs a year of experience, and then back to school where she'll be tighter on money...

  20. I want to quit!!!!!

    zzbxdo replied to ChaeF's topic in General Students

    Time is money. If nursing to you is a waste of time, you're bleeding money figurative and literally. If you want to open a salon go for it, you don't need a business degree. Get your aesthetics certs...

  21. So I have a few questions about my GPA.

    zzbxdo replied to Rocktheman's topic in General Students

    Time to wean away from

  22. Samuel Merritt/ Private ABSN/ second degree BSN programs

    zzbxdo replied to panda2bnurse3's topic in California Nursing

    I'm not arguing that smu is not competitive. Just stating that to complain it is not fair to not be able to afford tuition to an absn will get her nowhere. Like I said, there are other alternative...

  23. Worried about the rejection from program

    zzbxdo replied to iDrumKing's topic in General Students

    I would take the time and travel, volunteer, find yourself and accept you did your best. What's done is done. But don't worry about it. You sound like the stereotypical first/second Asian daughter...

  24. Worried about the rejection from program

    zzbxdo replied to iDrumKing's topic in General Students

    And if you get rejected, so what? You think successful people don't get rejected? Anyways, it's your career and life choices, what people think of you shouldn't matter and vice

  25. Worried about the rejection from program

    zzbxdo replied to iDrumKing's topic in General Students

    You're 22. Even if it takes you another year or 2, you are not behind, nursing is not a 4 year track. Comparing yourself to your friends isn't gonna do you any good. Gotta let some of that type a go...
