  1. Apply Anyway

    PCnurse88 posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Recently I was advised to apply to any job posting that I could find that didn't specify the amount of experience required or had less than 2 years experience as a requirement. I graduated in May and...

  2. Emory New Grad Residency Program, Spring 2014 - updates?

    PCnurse88 replied to troop949's topic in Georgia Nursing

    No it's making me nervous. I also stalk the internet for new grad residency programs and saw that Emory posted the one for their July and August 2014 programs... if I'm not going to be offered a...

  3. December BSN Grad in CT...no jobs in sight!

    PCnurse88 replied to mkr002's topic in Nursing Career

    It is rough here in Connecticut, I graduated last May and am still looking. If possible I would talk to the unit/hiring manager at the hospital you interned at, the hospital you worked at as a CNA,...

  4. RAWRRASDFAOJAD (Job Hunting)

    PCnurse88 replied to Jamuhh's topic in First Year After Licensure

  6. RAWRRASDFAOJAD (Job Hunting)

    PCnurse88 replied to Jamuhh's topic in First Year After Licensure

    @SunshineDaisy Yeah, CT wasn't compact either. I thought about getting a compact license but the only state on the list that I could conceivably move to is Rhode Island (at least from the lists I...

  7. RAWRRASDFAOJAD (Job Hunting)

    PCnurse88 replied to Jamuhh's topic in First Year After Licensure

    @Glad2baRN Yup! Connecticut licenses expire on the last day of your birth month and must be renewed every year. I'm a February baby so my license expires on Feb. 28th - and I only got my license at...

  8. RAWRRASDFAOJAD (Job Hunting)

    PCnurse88 replied to Jamuhh's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You are not alone! I held out for what I thought was a long time, job hunting and keeping a positive attitude. I started applying for jobs out-of-state and even got my license in a few other states to...

  9. Does it matter where a person goes to nursing school?

    PCnurse88 replied to acj108's topic in School, College Programs

    I attended school out-of-state and unexpectedly had to move home after graduation, and I have had NUMEROUS recruiters/managers say "oh, you didn't go to UConn or Yale? huh, why not?". (I'm from CT)...

  12. Emory New Grad Residency Program, Spring 2014 - updates?

    PCnurse88 replied to troop949's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I have a question for all of you that mentioned having to verify/reciprocate your license - have any of you started/finished the process of doing this? I recently got a Massachusetts license by...

    PCnurse88 replied to hope77rn's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I don't want to drag you down but I know a lot of new nurses in CT who are having a very difficult time getting a job, myself included. I graduated last May with my BSN and haven't even had an...

  14. Piedmont Residency Program in November

    PCnurse88 posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    So my goal right now is to move from Connecticut to Georgia for a bunch of reasons, most importantly grad school within the next 5-10 years. After researching their new grad internships and...

  15. Emory New Grad Residency Program, Spring 2014 - updates?

    PCnurse88 replied to troop949's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Weird - I went to the Emory site and saw that the application was up under the job ID # 39357BR but when I searched their current job openings, it wasn't there. The new grad portion of the career...

  17. Missed Call from Recruiter, Didn't Leave A Message

    PCnurse88 posted a topic in General Nursing

    The job I'm currently working at has a strict no cell phone policy and we have security cameras, so it's not like I can secretly carry my cell around with me and answer it. That being said, while at...

    PCnurse88 replied to PCnurse88's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the advice and well-wishes! I did call her back the next day; she didn't answer and I left a short but detailed message, giving her my name / reason for calling / phone number and said I...
