3. "old" new grad

   bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

   I checked Wikipedia after I asked the question and I definitely don't think I could live there (I'm from Hawaii). I spent 6 months in California and I froze my butt off there! That's with lows in...

4. "old" new grad

   bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

   Why is North Dakota not a good place to live? What are the hospital ratios like? How's the pay? It's definitely not someplace I have on my list of places I'd want to live but I'm keeping my options...

   bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

   Was that the one that gave up the new grad job to have elective surgery? I'm hoping the critical care tech experience helps a little (I'm great at interpreting EKGs), but I'm not

8. "old" new grad

   bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

   Yeah, I heard it's pretty terrible in California (and I actually prefer not to live there anyway, but it is the closest to Hawaii). However, I really don't think it can be worse than Hawaii, which...

9. "old" new grad

   bellatrixrn posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

   I've been out of school for two years now, and for a number of reasons didn't take my NCLEX until about a month ago. Amazingly enough, I passed! I was so excited to finally get that out of the way....

10. New Graduate Programs on Oahu

    bellatrixrn replied to Tamurasy's topic in General Nursing

13. Queen's Job Fair

    bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in General Nursing

    I've been a nurse aide for one year and a critical care tech for one year as well. I'm still deciding if I even want to apply at Queen's (to double my chances at a new grad program). I probably will...

14. Queen's Job Fair

    bellatrixrn replied to bellatrixrn's topic in General Nursing

    I already have a tech/aide position at another hospital, so I wanted to avoid working 2 jobs, although I probably will apply anyway. I thought maybe there would be more than what was online, since...

    Does anybody know if the upcoming job fair for Queen's Medical Center will include any new grad programs? I checked online but didn't see any applications for new
