  1. UC Davis New Grad 2015

    They didn't say.
  2. UC Davis New Grad Residency

    They didn't say.
  3. UC Davis New Grad 2015

    Onc has also made calls.
  4. Cali new grad RN

    You could apply to positions in TX if you want warmth. Houston and San Antonio have great hospitals. Once you get a year or two of experience, you'll have a better chance of getting jobs in Cali. Socal is rough, rough, rough. My classmates from ...
  5. UC Davis New Grad Residency

    I had a phone interview Dec 23. It felt like I was taking an exam. When I mentioned to the manager I had other offers, they simply said, "You should take them." Ouch.
  6. Blind CVs versus Applying to Job postings

    I think it really depends what city/cities you are looking in. If you apply to, say a major research hospital that has no listed openings for new grads, you have a 0.00004% of getting called. Look at where you did your clinicals, that's a great pl...
  7. Moving & applying for jobs online

    It all comes down to how your resume/cover letter appear to the HR peeps, as managers don't generally make the initial decision of who to bring in to interview. Also, nursing is my third career. I just graduated. I had interviews in NY, IA, KY, MD ...
  8. UC Davis New Grad Residency

    UC Davis isn't like most new grad programs. The start date is Jan 29 and I believe they are interviewing for both start dates before Jan 29. My assumption is that most interviews will be done before the end of the year. With the residencies that I ...
  9. Hey all - I wanted to share what I've learned about the job hunt experience over the past six months. Nursing is a career change for me. 1/ IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE YOU WENT TO SCHOOL OR WHAT YOUR GPA IS/WAS. Once again - It DOES NOT MATTER where...
  10. Tips on the job hunt...What I've learned

    Yeah, I think some hospitals may weed out based on salary. It was only a few hospitals I applied to that had the salary field marked "mandatory." Most hospitals have it as optional. I think they would weed out thinking you would expect more. I j...
  11. UC Davis New Grad Residency

    I just applied today. Hopefully they'll let people know of interviews by the end of the first week of December.
  12. UC Davis Nursing Residency - New Grad Sep 2014

    I don't think they send out rejection emails. I applied for the most recent cohort and received nothing.
  13. Boston children's hospital cicu

    I'd tread lightly contacting the NM out of the blue. While I was in a different industry when I hired people to work for me, if I got a phone call - I found their resume/cover letter and immediately threw it out. This was also because I had clearl...
  14. Where should a new grad BSN move?

    Look at Norton Healthcare in Louisville, KY. I interviewed for a job there but turned it down cause it wasn't the right fit...but they hire new nurses and Louisville is a really cool little city. I loved the hospital and the manager and the other n...
  15. New grads & Job Offer: When to settle

    I think your first job should be in a field you really want to be in. Start applying for residencies now...all over the country. Unless you are dead set on not moving from where you currently live. If that is your situation, you will have a diffic...
  16. Lurie Oct 2014 Residency

    Hey - I couldn't find a thread for this. Was wondering if anyone had applied for this and had heard about interviews yet. The initial email said it would take about 3 weeks and I think this is the third week. If you've heard, post away!
  17. RN, BSN new grad NYC jobs?

    Just want to throw something out there...it's fantastic that you'll graduate magna cum laude...but that means NOTHING when applying for jobs. It really depends on who you know...especially in NYC. Hopefully you belong to NSNA and other professional ...
  18. Lurie Oct 2014 Residency

    Thanks so much for calling on checking on things!
  19. Lurie Oct 2014 Residency

    I haven't heard anything. It may be worth a call to HR to ask if they are done calling candidates for interviews. (I'd think they probably are.) That way...those of us with no interviews can move on to the next thing. There's always something els...
  20. New Graduate RN in Boston

    Boston is 10,000% saturated with nurses. And I don't want to discourage you, but it's really going to depend on WHO you meet not on when/where you apply for a job online. There are many nursing schools in the Boston area that use all the hospitals f...
  21. Be aware that many hospitals in the area will no longer consider graduates unless you have a BSN. At the Maryland Student Nurses association meeting this year there were many Baltimore hospitals telling the ADN students that they needed to have a BS...
  22. advice young new grad (adn)

    Will you be doing home visits on your own? If so, ask lots and lots of questions of your coworkers. There are many things that can come up when you do home visits. I plan on working in hospice, eventually, but every nurse I spoke to said to get 1-...
  23. LPN or Rn? Hard for me to decide

    Having worked with nurses in multiple foreign countries, I recommend going the RN route. Also, the RN will help you get jobs in the States. Just be sure to get your BSN. In many cities, hospitals won't interview candidates with 2-yr RN degrees (ie...
  24. Tips on getting a hospital job as a new

    I think your best bet is to look outside of Florida. A friend of mine has been a nurse in Tampa for years and told me the market is saturated there. Truth be told, the market is saturated in many U.S. cities. But you may need to "bite the bullet" ...
  25. UC Davis Nursing Residency - New Grad Sep 2014

    I just looked at my status and it has changed to 060-Intvw. I'm assuming this means that people have been selected for interviews, and I'm not one of them. I haven't received a call. Do others who haven't received call for interviews also see the ...
