What do I call myself

Hello all, I am a newly graduate of an MSN-FNP program. I am scheduled to take my certification test in about 3 weeks. However, I have began to look for jobs. I am not sure what to call myself in my CV as I am not certified yet but am looking for NP jobs. Any suggestions? Should I just call myself a newly graduate NP or not?

Rule of thumb, never claim licensure you haven't yet attained. How about "NP student graduate, boards pending?"

But how could I state it in my CV or Resume in a professional manner? Currently I use MSN, RN-BC

Then that is what I would list. If you are submitting a cover letter with your resume/CV then you can include your pending test there.

If it were me, I would not include, however if you feel the need to list it on your resume/CV, you could include it in the certifications section as pending, with the anticipated test date. If you choose to do this, ensure that it is clearly stated that you aren't currently certified.

Congratulations on completing your program, and best wishes on the certification exam and job search.
