5. General New Grad Application Posting

   kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in General Nursing

   This is good advice. I'm an NA at a large hospital now, so when I speak with a recruiter in HR I can ask them how L and D feels about New Grads. I made a few connections when I had clinicals there,...

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone here transitioned from working as a PCNA (or the equivalent) to working as an RN on the same unit? Was it difficult to get used to a new role, and was the staff around you accepting of your...

14. General New Grad Application Posting

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in General Nursing
