  18. Hiring a new grad with a MSN

    No, why would they? They are a nurse either way- just like the ADN and BSN applicant. There's no increase in pay, and no room to bargain wages because they are still brand new
  19. Career Switch: Business to Nursing (ABSN Colorado)

    That is equivalent to more than six 12 hour shifts per week. That isn't really sustainable... maybe very occasionally. Seems like the employer may not allow that as well because of how much OT...
