Yes. Pm me your questions and I will be glad to answer

I' m a senior in the program. Let me know if you have any questions

What a rude way of replying to a post! Are you currently working in the Middle East? Have you talked to nurses that work in the Golf region? I just gave two examples that I personally know.

Recently got back from Bahrain.... I had an RN friend who was making 100bd which is about 260$ a month....and she had some experience as well. Although is hard to admit it, nurses from the West make more than the ones from the East ( Asia), however they don' t make that much either. Had an American (rn) friend who worked for a private ( royal ) hospital and made about 500bd ( which is a little over 1000$).my personal opinion: you should let them put the offer on the table first...

Akulahawk, Thank you for the useful advice!I officially start my job hunt today...hopefully I will be given a chance.

My reply might come a little bit too late but i have one interesting suggestion for you. I Am taking stats now and i am using an interesting tool provided by pearson called statcrunch... It makes my life much much easier and i actually enjoy taking this class. There are some youtube videos on how to use statcruch and you can also ask your instructor about how to use it. Furthermore, i rented a TI 83 calculator ( it' s about 150$ to buy it) but it' s amazing.Good luck!!

Thank you laura09!! I have an interview with mayo clinic to volunteer in their ER...hopefully, while helping other people, I will be able to make myself noticed. I am really dedicated to this career and I feel like if I am given a chance, I will not disappoint others.However, I know that in this economy is tough. Thank you for your reply!

Thank you for your reply TheCommuter! I was thinking about the same thing but do you think that it's possible to work a full time job and be a good nursing student at the same time? I applied for a monitor tech position but is 7pm-7am (I haven't seen part-time jobs yet).

Hello everybody, I've been reading the articles posted on this site for the past years and I would like to thank all of you for the great advices you give unexperienced and experienced fellow nursing students and nurses. I start nursing school in May (working on my BSN). With my other two associate degrees, I just need two years and a half to get my BSN. I am a very ambitious person and hope to get a job as soon as I graduate. I would like want to ask for some advices regarding ways of improving chances to get hired after graduation (besides great GPA ). I got my CNA license in Cali and worked for six months as a CNA (resigned because of relocation), and I am currently an active volunteer for two different charities (because I enjoy it). I recently applied to volunteer in the ER at a local hospital and the volunteer coordinator said she will call me next week to meet up. Is there any additional training I can get or anything else I can do to increase my chances of being "noticed?" Thank you so much again for taking time to read my post!
