    How to be a successful NP/NP Student

    My gut is telling me it would be wise to gain some experience first. I think I will enroll in a graduate level biostats course (which I need for the program) and hold off on the NP courses for now....

    Virginia Mason Residencies 2019

    I heard back about a phone interview the same day I applied, but I think that's the exception, not the rule. Don't get discouraged, I've heard back weeks to months after submitting an

    Virginia Mason Residencies 2019

    I have not heard, but I don't think I'm going to get it because I'm out of state and they were 0/10 impressed with that. I would just really prepare answers based off of your nursing school...

    First Job Hunt, No Luck

    What city are you applying in? Is it the same city you went to school in? What I've learned in my attempt to find a New Grad job 2,760 miles away is that you need to do SERIOUS legwork, you can't...

    Is it possible for me to be a good nurse?

    Hi Minimum. Congrats on being almost done! I'm also in my last semester and I am SO excited to graduate. I used to be so hard on myself. I'd keep a running list of all the dumb things I'd done, and...
  11. Did anyone end up hearing anything? It looks like the May cohort which was supposed to interview in March isnt interviewing until April, so I feel like you can't trust the timeline they give you. Did...

    SEATTLE RN Residency

    I am also moving to the area in a few months. It's expensive in Seattle. Like 2200+/month for a one bedroom expensive. But it seems like as soon as you go north of the city it gets significantly...

    Purdue Global Exceltrack??!

    Do you have any sense of what type of reputation it has? I know Purdue is a decent school overall but I'm not sure about this exceltrack stuff. It smells a little fishy to

    Less Saturated areas of CA?

    Thank you all for the replies. I am a military spouse and we are actually going to Seattle now, but will probably be headed to SD in the next few years. This is great info for any new grads looking to...

    Hospitals paying for your stay?

    This happened to me too just last week. Same region of the country, also a New Grad position. They payed for my mileage and hotel. I was blown away that they were willing to do it and would have loved...
