2. What happens if I don't work right away??? (May 2020 Grad)

   meaa42 replied to guest1136567's topic in Job Hunt

   That's a bad idea. It's very hard to get a decent job the longer you've been away from nursing. I would get a job ASAP, wait a few months to get pregnant so that you can finish you're year. You can work while pregnant. That would make it easier to ge...

4. Another lost new grad

   Hello all. At what point during the hiring process do you find out a start date and give notice to current employer? I signed the offer letter today for a hospital position. I'd like to give as much notice as possible to my current employer because ...
