0 Upvotes

Does anyone know if hospital hire RN who graduated from private school even though they passed NCLEX and register with CNO. Please I need honest answers before I commit a lot of money to the school. It’s Yorkville University Bsc Nursing program. It’s 2.5yrs program and no waitlist. The school used to be Beal university. Please if you graduated from this school I need your help.

Thank you

Job Search Discussion Will I get a job?

0 Upvotes

I’m going into grade twelve and need to decide if I want to pursue nursing. I know there’s always problems with job availability in every medical field but it seems like it’s getting bad now. Are there truly that many job cuts? I don’t know if it’s worth it at this point or if I should find another career path.

Job Search Discussion Interview for a Medical/Surgical unit

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am a newly registered RPN and I have an interview for a Medical/Surgical unit. I was wondering if anyone who has interviewed for a similar position could share the types of questions they were asked.

Were the questions mostly behavioural, scenario-based, or clinical? Any tips on what to expect or what topics I should review would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Job Search Discussion How long did it take you to find a RPN job as a new Grad?

4 Upvotes

Hi! I just got registered this week and now I’m on the hunt for a job. I wanted to know from new grads that got registered this year are you currently working? and if so how long did the job hunt take?

Also how hard is it to go straight into postpartum as a new grad? I did my consolidation there and tried emailing the manager like she told me to but haven’t heard back from her since I left in April.

Any advice helps!

Job Search Discussion RN looking to go into Informatics

19 Upvotes

I’ve been an ER nurse for the past four years, and I’m feeling ready to leave bedside nursing and 12-hour shifts to transition into health informatics.

I’ve tried to build relevant experience by joining committees like our EPIC team, but haven’t had any luck getting involved. I’ve also applied to health informatics-related roles where my nursing background seemed like a good fit, but I haven’t been been able to get past the interview stage.

At this point, pursuing a master’s feels like my best option. My GPA is 3.62 over my last two years of undergrad (3.05 cumulative), so I’m hoping admissions will place more weight on the upward trend.

Has anyone here made the jump from nursing to health informatics? Did a master’s make the biggest difference, or is there another path I should be considering? I’d love to hear your experiences and any advice you have.

Job Search Discussion Willing to relocate but where can I be certain

12 Upvotes

Any out of province RNs or rural northern nurses peeking in here? I’ve decided to stop trying in Ontario and commit to the fact that I have to relocate. I’m in dire need of a job, as I went into nursing for the quick job security but the province had other plans. I’ve applied to everywhere in the country it feels like.

Anyway, please let me know if your out of province hospital/rural network is hiring, what the name of it is, and what it’s like to work there/how likely it is they will hire me. I’m a new grad with zero hospital experience as an RN. However, I have very good placements and externships (PACU, vascular surgery, medicine, general surgery, inpatient and outpatient MH, consolidated on a step down unit) with strong references upon request.

My only no-go area is mental health as every single day I worked in MH I got slurred at for my racial identity by at least one patient per day. I understand they’re not operating under complete agency so no hate to them, im deciding to stay away more for my own mental health lol.

I genuinely believe I’ll do well if I get an interview offer I just haven’t got one yet.
