Residency classes start on March 2nd for me too! They called me yesterday to set up going into HR next week on Wednesday for badges/etc , and apparently a bunch of NEO in between! I’m excited and getting nervous at the same time time lol

Okay yay I thought mine was just delayed because I’m in the process of endorsing my license from Florida ! It should come in another week so until then I can’t do any of the badge stuff yet. But I’m feeling exactly the same because I don’t think they hired a lot of new grads in the NICU for our floor so I’m nervous since it’s a lot to learn! They told me I could hit the ground running With going to deliveries since I already have NRP but honestly that scares the heck out of me !

just wanted to share, I started at Valley Medical Center in ED this monday Feb 3rd. Happy to all of you who got job offers and appreciate all the help and support this group shared along the way.Who are still waiting, good luck to them as well. hang in there. you got this.

Same to you! I’m so happy you found a place that you like! Thank you for starting and replying to this thread it’s been nice to see where we all landed!

@lsaxena

Are you foreign graduate nurse? I was thinking of endorsing my NC license to WA, but I'm a foreign graduate nurse. I was wondering if that will affect the time range?

Hi @exol112,

i m not foreign graduate nurse. I did my nursing school in Vegas, Nevada. I don’t know in your case how much time it will take to endorse your license but u always can call BON, WA and ask!

A little late to the game ....but I will be in the March 23rd Cohort at First Hill's ED. Anyone else in that cohort? Look forward to meeting fellow Swedish new grads (in alllll the departments) ! Also, I am new in Seattle/ WA and would love to hear any advice you all may have on getting to know Seattle and meeting people in general.

Will be in Cardiac Tele at Cherry Hill! I am also new to Seattle moving from the San Francisco Bay Area. Definitely in the same boat as you looking for ways to meet new people and get myself out there

Hey @Panda123!

Great to hear of another fellow Northern CA new grad! Have you already moved up here? I just moved up to Seattle last week - so if you need any help/ information I am more than willing to assist as much a possible (still being a newbie myself ; ). ). I would love to connect, not sure if AllNurses had a personal message feature, but my email is [e-mail]. : )

I have accepted a job in Tacoma, WA and I am moving up from the San Diego area. I didn't get the job at Swedish, but was wondering if you guys have roommates how did you find them?

Thanks!

Hi! I'm also a NorCal new grad! I'm starting in Nephrology at the First Hill campus! I'm looking forward to meeting and working with everyone.

I am moving up early March to retrieve the stuff from the movers and complete my health screening(: Probably explore Seattle and get to know the area in the meantime. Would be cool if there was an event where March New Grads could meet up/hang out LOL
