Are you from VA? because initially I reach out to a nice recruiter out of my home state but she forwarded me to the local one. Thanks for the response Any of you applied to multiple branches? because im on the initial process also with airforce, I really don't mind which branch I just want to get started. My question is it a bad idea to do that?

Yes im on that step. Thanks. After that is interviews? Or meps?

Lets just my recruiter is not the most responsive, im just on the initial documents to be sent to her im just hoping she would be more responsive after this step. My questions is after I sent this documents and forms how long until I would expect MEPS. With the rank I ask her about it she just told me I will know after they process my credentials. But thanks for that info im 14 yrs nurse with MSN so hopefully I can get in as O3

Im just submitting my credentials (resume,forms, references) how long normally for meps or at least know my initial rank?

Wow thats really crazy. Im sorry for your experience. Im surprised that they even denied it after your grievance.

By any chance do you have a MSN? I know thats a requirement criteria for Nurse III, when you received your final offer how much was the salary? I got offered also recently Nurse II step 6 had to decline it because it was a paycut for me and im planning to get my MSN so I can just re apply next year

Congratulations! I just finished onboarding process in VA, going in as nurse 2 step 5. Seeing how haed it is to promote to nurse 3. Contemplating should I just do my quick MSN and re apply. Anyways do you guys know if night differential pay varies per area or is it standard? I hear 10%-19%? Thanks

Holy moly 20/21.. salute! Considering its heavy on cardiac. I guess it really helped you. How many weeks did you study? I got 90/125 with 3 wks studying but my lowest was cardiac LOL

Hey what was your score on cardiac systems? Did kupchicks reviewer help a lot particularly in cardiac? Thanks

On all military branches plus USPHS reserve or active. They won't take your degrees from the Philippines. I inquired on all of them. Enlisted pay vs civilian pay is night and day. Your best bet is getting your MSN online and apply. Theres MSN degree you can finish in 6months to a 1year. Good luck!

Anybody passed CMC recently, any suggestions on review materials. Thanks

I'm not trying to apply soon but just wondering if application is expedited, halted or prioritze ER Critical. Just curious

I read military healthcare is under one roof now DHA, does it mean all hospitals on all branches are open for everybody now? thanks

Its because the military healthcare is transitioning to be under 1 roof. Under the care of DHA. Theyre focusing uniformity on all braches and will focus on highly deployable jobs like icu peri op crna and ER. I read the other jobs will be given to GS jobs or contract

Found an article excerpt about my question regarding recruitment and division of DHA and the military branch "DHA will be responsible for budgetary matters, information technology, health care administration and management, administrative policy and procedure, and military medical infrastructure at all MTFs. The Services will be retain responsibility for operational mission support and recruiting, organizing, training and equipping medical airmen." I guess recruiting is still under the branches but administration and management will be under DHA. I wonder if promotion will be affected like slowed down or something.

I wonder eventually if all healthcare facilities will be staffed by 3 services like no more army navy specific med facilities. And i assume recruitement will be heavy on highly deployable positions like crit care, ER, OR and like you said labor delivery peds, GI, Etc will be outsource or will be GS jobs or USPHS members.

I read an article womack army med is already under DHA and 3 AF facilities, Jax naval hosp will be the next in transition.

Any insights on the centralization of military healthcare move in regards with recruiting, work assignements, deployments etc. im just curious as a future direct accesion applicant. Thanks

what nursing position is that with MPH?

@ms snapper are they strict about speeding tickets?

Hi can you share how many crna schools did u apply to and what school did u endup. How much experience did u have in icu when u were applying. Thanks

Thanks for the respond. How much time do you spend in teaching a class? Whats the average pay per class? Is it competitive enough in relative to hospital pay? I just want to understand is it doable working with FT or prt time in the hosp, family tim and teaching.

Do you mind sharing hows the pay teaching online, is it per course, per hour or salary? how long was msn education program when you did it? thanks

Just curious, I saw in the news about the Coast guards medevac going to Bahamas. So my question is, I know they don't have nurses in there branch but don't they need flight nurses or ccatt nurses for there medevac? Thanks for answering my curiosity

jfratian whats your source on that MSN, anybody you knew who went on that MSN route or thats the current policies? would they average your GPA from BSN and MSN or just take MSN. And suggestion on school that 30hour credit msn? the lowest ive seen was 34hr credit. Im in the same boat btw below 3.0 GPA. thanks a lot
