    Childrens Medical Center of Dallas July 2016 Residency

    Nope, and I was wondering the same. I e-mailed the recruiter, since she said we'd get it in a week or

    PICU or Pediatric Oncology

    toomanypants replied to cwazycupcakes's topic in Pediatric

    Hi! While I do not have RN experience in the pediatric heme/onc unit, I was a nursing assistant. What I know for sure about parents is that 99% of the time, our kids have a family member present...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks! We got a hold of each other and confirmed that the good news was an offer. I am not sure if they are done or not. I got the call yesterday around 5:30 central time, which is kind of after...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    The recruiter called me today saying she had "good news" for me. I was unavailable, so it was a voicemail, but I will be calling tomorrow first thing to see what this good news is! I thought you all...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    I remember feeling a little strange when they didn't validate my ticket after my tour. Where I currently am, that's like the first consideration for going anywhere and the first thing offered in any...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    I did. I asked at the end when they may let me know if it all works out. I always forget details when I'm nervous, so I can't remember if she said I'd know BY the 28th. Someone else posted that they'd...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    It does say starting the 28th, but I can't remember what the interviewers told me. I think they said by the 28th. I just don't want the 28th to come an go without knowing if that's the end or...

    toomanypants replied to JJM245's topic in Texas Nursing

    I've also just applied for the Part II application for DCMC. Does anyone know if there is a timeline, or if things are kind of done on a rolling basis? Or more importantly, what's the turn around time...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    I was going to post that, since the second interview was more like a meet-and-greet, I can't imagine not getting an offer. I tried looking through past threads, and no one said they did not get an...

    toomanypants replied to ms.simone's topic in Texas Nursing

    I haven't asked that particular question. During my interview, the managers explained that the recruiter may be letting people know around March 23 but most likely by the 28th. It seems like a few...

    toomanypants replied to BSNbeauty's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I rarely enjoyed being a student nurse, because it's so hard to feel like you are doing anything significant. But then I was assigned to a nurse on a neuro telemetry floor for three clinical days. He...

    Anyone tour the CVICU? Being out of state, I didn't get to take a peek after my interview. I'm curious how the unit is set up, like are computers right outside the rooms, is it a large unit, what else...

    This is so interesting, because I remember having similar feelings as an undergraduate. However, I was a Fine Art major who had thoughts occasionally about being a nurse. Well, those thoughts followed...

    Weird/ Dumb Nursing School Rules

    Oh, I wanted to add that I despised that we were made to bring our skills bag to sim lab every single time throughout the entire program. I would park off campus and walk to class, and in the summer,...

    Weird/ Dumb Nursing School Rules

    toomanypants replied to Randy RN ASN's topic in General Students

    Sorry for the negativity OP. I think your post generated a bit more hostility than you intended. I'm all for a rant-about-nursing school post! I remember sitting in my program's orientation and...

    I just had my Skype interview with two nurse leaders/managers for the CVICU. Like others have said, it went really well. It was actually quicker than I thought-- 20 minutes total. We took about 15...
