Hi everyone! I just passed the NCLEX on July 1! So i am licensed, but jobless! I had a job offer for L&D but decided to turn it down until the next cohorts. However, I am still applying for other positions. In case i don't get a job anytime soon...

yeah you a rep probably right. however i found out i made a good decision. i got hired on a to med/surg floor the next month which is exactly what i wanted! it fit exactly what i held out for. Best career move I've made so far. thanks for your input ...

Doctors Hospital

Yes, not.done.yet. I completely agree with your statements. That makes more sense. Hospitals cannot risk taking these opportunities time is money and they are wanting to make good investments. I think my biggest fear is being there for 8 wks, being w...

I understand what you mean about orienting someone and spending money on them, but to be completely honest the stipend is actually not very much even for a new grad. But youre right it is a good time to see how youd fit on the unit. Thats another one...

ohhh, Right, thats the kind of deal i was used to hearing. This is the first time I even hear of the 8 wk stipend program. It just seems odd that there would be no penalty or fine for not applying for full time after 8 wks. I'd love to stay at med ci...

also, what do you mean by "weigh out the payment"

You have been so helpful!!!When i got a tour of the floors everyone seemed so nice. So that means i can apply elsewhere within the HCA system, Medical City, or...anywhere? I would love to hear your reply!

Hope you pass! you'll do great! Yes they told me about the new wing as well. What unit did you get hired for? Also, what is the deal with the 8wk stipend. Does that mean we can still apply to other hospitals since we didnt sign a contract?

Hey !how did your phone interview gO?

I am so sorry for the late reply! For somereason i couldnt send you a PM. New Mexico is one of the compact states compatible with Texas. I think it should be able to work. However i know that texas requires their nurses to complete the Jurisprudence ...

Hey ALly! Im so sorry about your experience! Can you please tell me what unit you worked on? I recently got hired but im still a bit skeptic about accepting the position. We havent started yet. Can you please let me know more info?? I really want to ...

I thought I wanted L&D once I was there it put things into perspective. It was hard but I knew it was right for me. It's given me more chances to scope out other hospitals. I'm happy with this decision. We should also remember to evaluate our emp...

Just a career move..there's a hospital that advised me of what areas of nursing are less likely to get hired if they wanted to transfer. I really was interested in the job! It is considered more of a specialty to recruiters, maybe later down the roa...

I believe New Mexico is a compact state. The only exam i know of that shed have to take, is the Jurisprudence test, and its online and open book. However it is time limited. She can always call the texas board.

This may have been a dumb move, but i turned down a job that had everything i was looking for! but my heart wasnt in that position. I took a chance. I would follow your gut. Dont do it for the money, do it for what youre passionate about.

I posted a similar question! if someone posts good advice can you please get back to me? Thanks!

I have NCLEX 4000 not compatible with Mac though
