I am trying to get some insight and a bit of information from everyone since the recruiters are out of office currently. I will finish my ADN this December and will start on my BSN right away and finish it by next December. During this time I will be working on a med-surg/tele floor. I just wanted to gather some basic information about the process and when I could start building a packet. I did serve in the Air Force for 7 years, just recently separated last year. I did 4 years of active duty and 3 in the reserves. Is the Air Force in need of Clinical Nurses currently? Will my prior experience help my chances of getting accepted? I know you need 1 year of RN experience with your BSN, so will the time that I will be working with my ADN while finishing my BSN count? Also what else helps make a packet stand out?
