The manager called me and set up an interview no name, no phone number, nothing! I had to google the number and see where the number came from. It was from UCSD and I remember I applied there for a nurse position. I called the number back and told them I missed a call maybe in regards to a nursing position and forwarded me to the manager and we set up an interview and time. I drove to the hospital and tried to find her office... to "interview" with her. The front desk people told me she wasn't there that day. I was seriously confused. Then the front desk lady called her and told the manager I was here. The manager told me to come back next week same time. I did just that thing and showed up for my interview etc etc. Apologized to me about making a mistake or whatever and promised that she called (I don't need promises). The interview went well and I met the staff and toured the place and then she told me she would call me back. I got a call from them and no one left a voice mail or anything. I just don't appreciate unprofessional manners it is annoying and a waste of my time. So I left a voicemail with her and thanked her for the interview and consideration and interviewed with different hospitals.

Thank you for the tips.

Thank I will call the Cali BON. I both have my LVN and RN license.

Good Evening Nurses, I moved to a city where it is over-saturated with new grad RNs (I had no choice my husband got stationed here!). I've read multiple posts in regards to how hard it is to find jobs. I have interviewed at UCSD for an LVN position and the manager over there stated that it is harsh out there for New Grads as one of her LVNS who is an RN has been working for them for 2 years and is now leaving the state to work as an RN. Well a few days after I got my NCLEX RN results (passed) I got my RN license number within 2-3 days at the breeze website. I went ahead and applied to a new grad RN position. I got a phone call within a week and I interviewed with the manager and a panel. A week later I was offered a position. I cried of course and thank God for the blessing. But I have accepted a per diem position as an LVN at a prestigious "magnet" hospital because I was so afraid I would be jobless for two years just like the other nurse from the managers story! I haven't started orientation yet but I have done all the paperwork etc. (I don't start until next month) I feel nauseous just thinking about what has happened because orientation at the magnet hospital is 1 week of computer training and following another nurse fulltime as an LVN for one month. As for the RN position I haven't received a start date and I feel real anxious as it may overlap with my other position as an LVN. Anyways. I am just venting! The RN position is Part Time at nights and the LVN position is Per Diem at nights. Please advise and have a wonderful day!

Took the NCLEX RN for CA yesterday... almost 5 hours and 265 questions later I went to the grocery store to buy some food because I was stressed and starving. Then I went online and tried the PVT then again 24 hours later. I got the good pop up. Hopefully the results are good.

I took my exam today NCLEX-RN. Almost 5 hours and 265 questions :/ My brain is mashed potatoes. I went to the store and bought groceries feeling super sad about my life and how hard I studied. I did over 2500 questions in two months prepping for this exam. My cousin told me about this Pearson Vue Trick. I got the "good" pop up. We shall see when the results are legit my feeling isn't good. I took the NCLEX - PN 6 years ago and that test was hard to me too.

I haven't heard from them.
