Was hired for my first LPN job, today!!!

Nurses LPN/LVN

Published

I'm so excited! I interviewed last Thursday with a small detox clinic and got the job offer today!!! I'm so happy!! I've been searching for about 2 months and was getting discouraged & I'm so relieved that I'll finally be able to start my career!!!

I really thought I'd start out working in LTC like the rest of my classmates, but that's ok. I'll take the opportunity! The Clinical Director was so nice. I felt so comfortable interviewing with her. I met a couple of the nurses after my interview & they seemed great, too!

Orientation is the 26th & 27th. I'll get the details then. The director told me they have new nurses shadow for a full month, or until they feel like they're ready to go on their own. That's so cool & such a relief to me!! I'm so excited. And scared!! I hope I can meet all their expectations within a reasonable amount of time!

Congrats!! :) So happy for You! I know the feeling- I felt like that too. I just landed a new job too and am in orientation.. I'm excited but super nervous!!!

Congratulations! You deserved it... Best wishes and GODbless to you!

Does anyone know how long it would take to be a nurse practitioner...starting out with a LPN degree??!!

Congratulations!!!

Thank you so much, everyone!! I gave my notice to both of my part-time jobs (will be so nice to work one full time job with benefits). I have to have documentation of a recent TB test and a fingerprint card to take to orientation with me. I started the TB test yesterday & need to get to the police station this week for the fingerprint card. Between that, my classes, and my final week with my p/t jobs, this will be a busy week!

Wow, sounds like you've been working hard! Congrats!

CONGRATS!!!

I am an LPN too and just got my first job in LTC like 2 weeks ago. Hopefully I am starting this week. Background check is taking forever to come back cause I have lived in more than one state. Blah!

but yeah...CONGRATS AGAIN!!
