Throw in a cute personalized l&d nurse badge clip from etsy :)

That's a pretty stupid assumption it's just a screen name, that somehow is directly related to how she'll practice as an rn? Please tell me you're being sarcastic

pay off the loans! Thats a no brainer I envy you, i also make 30$/hr as a new grad, but i live in a city with a ridiculously high cost of living. So i dont feel like i make enough. Eta: I don't envy you actually I just noticed you didn't calculate properly. Expect a $700 check at the end of your week not 1200.

55k, paying $462 per month ....but its ok because im making "big money" according to my family:rolleyes:

I had my first one today.

Congrats, this is my goal. I'm a new grad just starting in mother baby and I hope to transfer to L&D next year. Did you switch hospitals or did you just make a transfer within the hospital?

Be as specific as possible on the envelope. I work in OB and tons of families send thank you cards and baby pics to the unit and we put in on a bulletin board in the hallway. I was reading it and i noticed one of the cards was a thank you for the interview card for the nurse manager. Awkward.

Graduated early may. Applied may 31st, got interviewed july 9, got the job offer july 22 passed the nclex 2 days later. I've been working full time in mother/baby for about a month now, in a new grad residency :). I worked as an aide in this hospital on a different floor, did my clinical in l&d and preceptorship in m/b at this same hospital. Its a great place to work, so I made sure to let the clinical placement coordinator know where i wanted. Next step is l&d.

Hello all, I'm a new grad that just started a full time residency on a Mother/Baby unit. I'm one of four. 4 were also hired onto L&D. I'm very lucky and grateful to get in my dream unit and hospital so soon. Unfortunately the position ends in the spring time, but I was told there's a chance of them letting us keep our positions. But there's so many experienced nurses working here already, so I don't know. I feel like I'm in a competition. Ultimately I would love to work in L&D at this hospital. I just want some tips on how to be so great they'll want to keep me and be willing to accept be into l&d. I'm aware of resume boosters and such but I'm mostly in need of advice on actually working on the floor Thank you

adpiRN, omg, that's funny I got mine in the mail today! You'll love it, it's so cute!

Um yea. Baggy clothes can make a slim person look like there wearing a paper bag

I don't have any tips, as I am a new grad, but I start mother/baby this month too :).
