    HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    OrganizedChaos replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I looked into EC & I liked everything except the clinical test at the end. Just *thinking* about it made me super anxious, I can't imagine what would happen if I were to do it. I wish there was an...

    HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    OrganizedChaos replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    OrganizedChaos replied to Katy21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well if someone else took over the program & redid it there's really nothing you can do. If interviews are one of the requirements & they only admitted 20 students then you have to apply again...

    I love this so much!! It is true, I don't think I'm in the right (mental) place to go back to school or work right now. Reading all these comments are so inspiring! It really makes me feel great!...

    OrganizedChaos replied to janerzRN's topic in Nursing Career
