    Since I'm applying for the NICU speciality, my recrutier showed me the list and there was 3 slots open. It varies depending on what specality you're applying for or if you're FQ or not. It can change...

  6. Chief Nurse Interview Question

    morgan_porgan replied to Camo-angel's topic in Government, Military

    Thanks jfratian! I thought it was weird that they said it didn't matter. I think they meant more that it didn't disqualify me from applying for the FQ boards, but would matter later on when I went to...

  7. Chief Nurse Interview Question

    morgan_porgan replied to Camo-angel's topic in Government, Military

    I had a question about the CNO interview as well. I went last year and the officer said my GPA from college wasn't crazy high, which it isn't, but I'm applying for fully qualified, so it doesn't...

  9. NICU Nursing Air Force

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    Sara, unfortunately I did not get selected last selection board. I only had technically level 2 experience, so they said they wanted me to have more. So I just started a job in January at a level 4...

    morgan_porgan posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Hi! I've been a Nicu nurse for about a year and a half now and yesterday received my first patient family complaint. I know this won't be the last time this happens, but how do you all handle these...

  12. Air Force Nursing selection boards

    morgan_porgan replied to darthsunshine's topic in Government, Military

    Does anyone know if its true if you have to wait 6 months from the last time you applied? I applied for the September boards and did not get selected. I changed jobs to get higher level experience and...

  13. NICU in Air Force

    morgan_porgan replied to UCAFblue's topic in Government, Military

    I just applied as a NICU nurse this last board. Didn't get selected because of lack of higher level experience. Hence I got another job because my ultimate goal is to be in the military. So I plan on...

  14. Air Force FY 2015

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    My recruiter told me each person is scored out of 30 points. And there is different areas to score in. So when the official results come out you will find out what the areas are and how you scored. So...

  15. Air Force FY 2015

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    My recruiter said he got "unofficial" results last Thursday. I already know that I didn't get selected and will have to try again next year. Good luck to everyone else! My recruiter has said that the...

  16. Air Force nursing FY2015

    morgan_porgan replied to jmj27's topic in Government, Military

    My recruiter told me that the results came out unofficially andI didnt get selected. I don't know how he found out already and told me. I'm just too upset to even care. No one else has told me they...

  17. Air Force FY 2015

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    Not sure. My recruiter just called me this morning (while I'm on vacation! What a nice time to find out right?) but he just told me based on some website or something I didn't get selected this time...

  20. Air Force FY 2015

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    Yeah, I've heard that. But I've also heard the rare recruiter who is actually nice and does their job. My recruiter is just plain rude. The other day I had a question and when he answered the phone he...

  21. Air Force FY 2015

    morgan_porgan replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    Krismista, My recruiter just got the email of the NICU advisor and emailed her directly. He emailed her on like a Monday or Tuesday and we had the interview the following Tuesday. She was just busy at...

  22. Air Force nursing FY2015

    morgan_porgan replied to jmj27's topic in Government, Military

    Apparently he's being trained to be the physician recruiter, so someone else is going to be the new nurse recruiter. So if I don't get in this board, hopefully I will have a new recruiter. And I've...

  23. Air Force nursing FY2015

    morgan_porgan replied to jmj27's topic in Government, Military

    Sounds like I need a new recruiter. My guy is a major jerk. It's sad because if I had no previous exposure to military, I would be majorly turned off by him. The guy hung up on me the other day and...

    morgan_porgan replied to jmj27's topic in Government, Military

    morgan_porgan replied to ArjjA's topic in Government, Military

    Yes my recruiter set up the time and date. Although as always, I had to remind him that we needed to schedule it ASAP because he always likes to do things last minute. So he asked me what my...
