I'll be done with LPN school this week I have already submitted my application packet to sit for boards and my transcripts will be forwarded the BON the day of graduation. From what I understand, it's going to be at least a month before I'll actually be able to take the NCLEX. I was wondering, would I be wasting my time if I started applying for jobs now? Will facilities hire a nurse who is waiting to test? Has anybody had any luck or experience with this? Thanks in advance for your input!
