Hey all! I moved out to California to brave the brutal job market here. I got my license last week and have been applying non-stop for jobs. It's only been a week and I know people search for months and months, but I have an interview (my first and o...

Just wanted to share my story in case it might be helpful to you as I was in your shoes a few months ago! I graduated from nursing school in Texas and planned to move out to CA right away. The biggest hurdle was getting the BRN to process my license ...

Has anyone from OR heard anything?

Hey Jeannine! Did you get a call from the unit manager?

I interviewed a little over two weeks ago and got the email last week. But as others have said, every unit is different in terms of their timeline, so I would go based off what they told you at interviews as far as when you should expect to hear back...

i posted that as a reply to a question about getting the reference check email, not the job! i dont know why it showed up as a solo post and not a reply. i can only hope to get the magical offer call soon too though!

yes! got it this past week

did anyone else from OR get reference check emails?

hey guys! hope everyone's interviews went well! just wondering if anyone has rooted through the old threads to find out how quickly they send out the reference requests after the interview?

Hello all! I recently applied to a research nurse job at a fairly large hospital and I managed to get an interview! I was just wondering how I should prepare, outside of doing the normal research on the hospital values, mission statement, etc. I'm re...

I did a similar thing. I moved to California immediately after finishing my BSN degree and took my exam and got licensed here. I'm in Southern California and it is definitely not easy to get a job out here. I would definitely consider taking a year t...

thanks for giving us some insight! just wondering, was the 20 minute session just you and the interview panel?

Does anyone know what the start date for this program is? I can't seem to find it!

Thank you all for your responses. As a confused new nurse, all advice is much appreciated! I was actually offered a position at the SNF, in a supervisor role, but I do not feel qualified to be in such a role so I am unsure about what to do!

Hi all! I just finished my nursing program in Texas (8/14) and I'm moving out to California next week. I have read lots and lots about the massive delays with licensing through the BRN, but it's mostly from Winter/Spring grads. Just wondering if any ...

September 18th. But that was with the help of one of the ladies at the BRN who really went above and beyond to get my application evaluated as it hadn't been looked at at all when I started calling in early September.

June 2nd and I got my ATT Sep 18th. After many, many, many phone calls to the BRN! I think they are still having a lot of issues, but I was lucky enough to get in touch with two different people at the BRN who were both super helpful in getting my ap...

I suggest doing the online application through Breeze now and starting to send in some of your stuff, like previous transcripts and fingerprints, etc. In my experience as a Texas grad applying for a CA license, the BRN is excruciatingly slow at proce...

Just wondering if anyone is still having this problem? My payment was processed on June 2nd and I'm still waiting to hear something. I used to be able to get through to speak to someone on the phone but the past week or so, I have called countless ti...

I actually had to do hard card since Texas doesn't have live scan. But I did all of that in June so last I spoke to the BRN, they've got it cleared. I'm just waiting on my ATT!

Hope I've got this topic in the right place! I know there have been several questions asked about this but I haven't been able to find the exact information that I've been looking for. I am currently in a Texas Nursing program, graduating in August ...

Thank you both for the information! I went ahead and applied for a California License. I was actually reading a different thread about moving to California as a New Grad and most of the comments mentioned that the outlook for out of state new grads w...
