  5. new RN,, how do i start job hunt

    SpunkRN replied to uniqueguy34's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    SpunkRN replied to NurseHailey's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Oh and nurse Hailey, you need to just call and talk to the Recruiter and see what he/she says. I would work any and all angles. It shows you are motivated. It could be that they aren't going to...

  11. Job now vs. waiting on New Grad program

    SpunkRN replied to squidgel's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Wow. I think it's so crazy that you would be outbid the running with a month or so of home care. Maybe you can speak with someone in charge of the residency program and work something out. Wouldn't...

    SpunkRN replied to Tiff622's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  17. How long did it take you to land your first job?

    SpunkRN replied to Sessa RN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I am surprised that you can get a job in home health with no experience. I was thinking of looking into those positions but I feel a bit unprepared for that. If something goes wrong you are the only...
