Yes, it is becoming a FT job looking for a FT job. :) The only reason I've stuck to the ER is because EMS and the ER is all I now. It's what I've been doing over 10 years now. I will have to broaden my search, however, I would hate to work on a u...

If I knew I'd be addressing it, trust me. I'm guessing personal reasons or ego trips. I have my HR file. I had it printed yesterday. Nothing in it. But again, how am I to know or not know, that within HR, my name is flagged. Some people confus...

@ lub dub At my ER, the medics do pretty much whatever they want. Triage, lines, meds, ekgs, etc. We also do minimal charting. There are a few things that only the nurses do of course. I agree, an ER tech is not the same as an ER RN, I'm simply ...

Psu_213 For the above mentioned reasons. I go on vacation assuming a job is in hand, HR says they're going to contact my boss, all of a sudden no job, no returned calls, nothing. That sounds sketchy at minmum. While I know most EDs don't hire new ...

Touche. :) Well even after listening to everyone's insight tonight, my gut tells me this is intentional. Maybe not full out 'blackballed', but more of maybe the 'we'll make you mad so you quit' route. I won't lie, they're close to getting their ...

I'll go with that, however, wouldn't you expect that one would be an internal hire over a random new grad. I'm cross trained as an ER tech and RN. I already possess most of the required certs of an ER RN. I might possibly have a quicker learning c...

I've interviewed for ONE job in the system, the job I thought I was getting. I've applied and interviewed at 2 other ERs in neighboring cities to no avail. I've recently applied to 3 PT ER spots athe biggest hospital in my system and was immediatel...

I am currently an ED tech that passed nclex 2 months ago. So I'm already 'trained' in the ED atmosphere. Now I've advanced to RN. You would think I'd be an internal hire as a new grad. One BIG part of forgotten to tell you all is that I have a p...

I attempted to lateral transfer to another hospital (same organization), and the same type unit. I interviewed, it went well. I believed it to be a 'going thru the motions' type interview. I FULLY believed I'd have a job awaiting me after vacation...

thanks for the reply TU RN. I highly doubt it's the new grad phenomenon. I've been at my current job for 2.5 years, however, not as a RN. I attempted to lateral transfer to another hospital, same type unit, but as a new RN grad. I've been told by...
I cannot prove it, but I know for a fact I've been blackballed by my own bosses at my job. Not only that, I believe they've blackballed me within the entire organization I work for. What are my options? I would to hate to leave the system perman...
