oh my I was way over prepared, didnt' need resume (she already had it) no application (she already had it) didnt' ask for references I think I already had them on app. didn't ask too many questions I think we just clicked and she sent me right over t...

is there anything I am forgetting other than, copies of me resume, thank you card for afterwards, questions to ask, my license???? what am I forgetting? AmyD RN

yup it would be 3 mo minimum unless I desire more plus intense critical care classes they send you to. dedicated preceptors with previous experience training and only have one yougo with not several. Is there anything else I should ask or make sur...

Yup I did know what to expect, just fustrating sometimes, but I just went on my first interview along with the 2nd and 3rd all in a matter of 3 hours. I think I have the job if I want it in an ED at a local hospital , they have great training and ...

no I dont but that would be a great idea for later interviews since I am battleing being out of school for 12 years and just now getting the nclex. But God if faithful! thanks for the tips!

I have an oppurtunity friday (maybe if a girl doesn't call back) to join a float pool. The HR person said there is an incentive (financially) to work this area cause the special high training. anyone know what it might be?

Off topic, but I really love your signature in your posts.......I love Christopher on SNL!!!!!

Oh no I didn't take it like that at all. That is the great thing about allnurses you can learn from others who have been there first. I will keep all this in mind I still think I would be shorting myself by not at least going to the interview. She ...

1. how many questions did you take on nclex? 220+ lost count but not much after that i know it wasn't 225. 2. what study materials did you use? did you take a test review course? i did not take a review course i just used saunders and i carried arou...

someone on the staff here changed mine for me! maybe you could contact the admins?

No I am a new nurse going for my first job. The lady said they would highly train me till I was comfortable with the job. Float pool is where you float from floor to floor depending on who needs you that day. Usually the med surg floors. It is als...

LOL I had the "Early Sunrise" (I think that is what it is called) at Bob Evans. Hubby and I woke up early and spent an hour and a half eating and drinking coffee. not to mention I had woken up the morning before with a UTI, full blown yeast infect...

What do you think went wrong with the interview?

wish there was something wise we could all say that would make it easier for you to relax and not check pearson or your Bon every 5 secs. but just try to hang in there! Your test sounds like so many that passed! Keep us informed we are all rooting ...

yeah I thought that too but HR is in a totally different building and about 6 blocks from the hospital. Was just wondering. AmyD RN P.S. it is going to be interesting, I had a DR friend at church come up to me this past weekend and told me not to co...

can anyone tell me what to expect? I applied by mail to a hospital 35 min away and it is an OB position. but I am meeting with their nurse recruitre, ....is that normal? What can I expect? do you think this is just a generic interview? wouldn't ...

I was a student that failed the boards twice in 1994. never looked back till last year. decided that there was nothing stopping me and what better way to get the info I needed than to google "student nurse nclex" forums. And guess what was the fir...

I am proof this is not true for everyone , just look at my posts over the last year!!!!!!! AmyD RN

Can you please enlighten me as to what a PDA does? I have never had one nor do I know anyone that uses one. How do you look up drugs? Do you put a program on it? Or am I totally out in left field?

Even though I passed I would have studied infection control and delegation more. Guess I must have studied enough on that, well not really, must be the critical thinking skills? I really dont know when it comes to that test I felt like another nur...

Well it sure does have me stumped as to why the nurse recruiter and not the flor mgr. that is why I am not letting myself get to excited yet. I looked online and the positions they have available are O.B., ccu, and ER so I know ER is out (at least ...

I talked to my nurse recruiter at our local hospital and she said about 3 days of regular getting to know the hospital, cpr, iv, etc..... then it is 6mo min. on the floor for orientation. I thought that was long but good I think. Not sure about the ...

yes! well I am not cqlling myself normal but I did pass and I freaked out cause I got the last question wrong....and was sure I had failed.....LOL I hope it was normal! LOL:P

funny how the test makes 99% of people feel the exact same way!!! Keep your head high!!!! AmyD RN

Not sure if you still need the info or not but........... I took the RN program in Zanesville, I liked it just fine! they also have BSN online but you would need to go to athens for internship. goodluck!!! If you have any questions just call Denis...
