Hi everyone
I don't know which section to go to ask about endorsement. So basically, I didn't get my license number or card yet. I believe here in my HI it takes a month to send the license after you pay the fee. But, I am wondering to endorse my license to CA or WA. Do you guys know about the compact? or if you become a member to a certain website (organization) that everytime you endorse your license to different state you just need to pay $50? I need help I don't have any idea on how to apply with different hospital in different states because I don't have my license number yet or my license card with me. I am willing to move to different states on where there are jobs opening for new grad. Coz here in HI it's so hard to find a new grad or job openings if you dont have 1yr exp or if you don't have any network inside the hospitals. Any imput is very much appreciated.

Compact state only works when you live permanently in one state and work temp in another and both states are part of the compact agreement. If you move permanently then you have to endorse licence. All information on endorsing will be on the BON website of the state you plan on living in. Fees will vary but I don't believe there is a organisation you can join to make it cheaper
