  3. Didn't see a thread for this, so I'm making one. This is for the 2016 THR Versant Residency Program. This past week (Sept. 7-11, 2015) I noticed that some of the hospitals were starting to post their...
  4. New Grad L&D or Postpartum Programs

    Meghankavs has some excellent advice. Another thing to think about, too, is trying to get some certifications that are special to that area (like NRP, EFM, and even ACLS or PALS would look good on...
  5. Thanks for the comments and support Futurenurse, Roxy, and Nanik! I check my application status frequently to see if I get another interview spot. Keeping my fingers crossed! For those who've gotten...
  6. Clinic vs hospital nurse pay

    And it's nice to see that the pay increases with experience. I will have at least a year of experience when I move to Colorado, so it's good to see that the starting point is
  7. Clinic vs hospital nurse pay

    I'm a new graduate RN in Texas. I just my first nursing job at an urgent care clinic here in Texas. My family and I are wanting to move to Colorado (not sure where exactly right now...just not the...
  8. Clinic vs hospital nurse pay

    Yeah UC at Colorado Springs is one of the few programs that I've found that will accept a nurse with some sort of experience. I've researched on different threads and stuff and have seen that it can...
  9. Sometimes I can stumble when I speak. And it can be hard for me to think of the words to say..kind of like they're on the tip of my tongue but it might take me a few seconds to think of the word. I...
  10. Thanks for the tips Roxy! You know, I felt like the interview went well...I was very excited to be there- so I was smiling a lot and genuinely interested in what she was saying. With the Denton...
  11. Well I didn't get the L&D spot I interviewed for. But I still have two Mother/Babys that are forwarded to hiring manager. Anyone have any tips for acing the interview? I always feel like the...
  12. Ok thanks
  13. Can anyone tell me what the heck a loose bound folder is? Is it like a regular folder? Or one with the brads (I think that's what they're called) in

    Since I hadn't heard back from SSW, I contacted the recruitment coordinator for that hospital. She informed me that they had to close that position due to budgeting and other problems. I don't know if...
  20. Yeah. I'm probably going to do the same to try to maximize my
  21. Nevermind! I found it! And now I'm going to bookmark it so I don't lose
  22. How do you check the application status? I registered and created a profile but can't find where to check the status. I really want to attend the GN Reception but I won't be able to due to finance...
  23. Seton RN Residency October 2015

    I interviewed for Seton Hayes and Seton Southwest L&D on a panel interview back in August. Got a denial from Seton Hayes last week or so. Anxiously waiting to hear back from Seton Southwest....
