  1. BSN's vs. Community college

    Hi San Diego, yes indeed this topic is as old as the sand between Moses' toes already, but not the way acadamians (?) choose to deal w/ it. Many of us overpaying 2nd degree students argued w/ our own...

    Gawd I hope not!!! LOL

  11. Please help!

    Free2Fly, I hope you lucked out. I did. I start Oncology on the 24th. Interview w/ recruiter one Friday led to an interview w/ 4 units, b/c she was determined to get me on their payroll; it was just...
  12. Should I or shouldn't I?

    Cherokee, you're funny. I've been thinking about taking a trip over this next week before jumping in. I have my new hire paperwork and testing this AM, then in 2 weeks I start orientation....

  14. How can she get away with that? Doesn't that raise a red flag for you? Esp now that you're out (way to go Jessy) and can look back w/ more objectivity? How can she dare to tell you that you are not...

  16. Getting ready to start...feel STUPID!

    Cherokee, I think I've lucked out w/ a hospital and a unit that appreciates new grads. That's got to mean they expect us to be asking and reviewing, right? Fingers crossed!
  17. How long did you take to accept job offer?

    Hey DB, it certainly sounds like $$ is your motivator. My only is to say don't make any snap decisions. Try the antiquated idea of a piece of paper w/ 2 columns on it. One titled Pros. One titled...
  18. Graduate in December. Apply for jobs now?

    Just rec'd my official offer to start in Oncology/Renal in a couple of weeks. Great hospital. Local (oh well) but the commute is only 30-40 mins (in this town that's superb!) and they love new grads...
  19. How long did you take to accept job offer?

    Hi DBev, just another question to ponder is, what shifts will be available to you as a new grad. It's fairly similar for many places to start on evening shift. For some reason, I've noticed that...

    So Mom, is it easier as a new grad to work night shift? I was just accepted to an oncology/renal floor and will be working 7P-7A.
  22. What do you love about working in oncology?

    Julie, I'm glad to hear you say I'll develop all my skills b/c I too just accepted a new grad position as an Onc RN. And this is against all odds. I wasn't expected to pass my boards on the 1st try...
  23. Getting ready to start...feel STUPID!

    Sounds like me right now Cherokee! And I've been asking the same questions you have been. I feel like a sponge who has just taken as much learning as she could until it started to leak out due to...
