What speciality are you looking for? Do you need to take a refresher course. I don't know the time frame. 5 years sticks in my head. I've never been out of nursing for that long. LOL HMMMMMOriginally Posted by djwRN BSN

I'm not really looking for a speciality, I'm just trying to get started. I'm going to go on and get my MSN in Leadership and Management. Because that is what I really want to do. Refresher courses here are too expensive and they are really expensive when you don't have a job. So for now that is not an option for me now if someone offers to pay for it I will gladly go no questions asked. Otherwise it's on the job training which is what it's going to end up being w/wo a refresher course.
Guess I wasn't too clear. Are you looking for M/S OB ER? That's what I meant by speciality.
Re: AnY Suggestions
You were clear and it doesn't matter where I start I just need to start. At this point I would probably(maybe) work just about any where. I just want some good experience.
Well three years post graduation and just passing the boards probably won't get you into a highly specialized area of nursing.
I gave you some advice. You didn't seem to want it. I don't have a job for you. I guess it's better to stay unemployed than improve your odds with a refresher course.
Sometimes ya gotta spend money to make money. Didn't you spend money on your degree?
:luck: :luck: :luck:
if you are seriously in need of a job that bad, pick up a sunday paper, or a copy of your state's monthly newsletter or magazine, and look at the job posting ads.
There are tons and tons of positions open.
If I needed a job tomorrow, I could get one at one of any number of nursing homes.
LTC may not be your cup of tea, but there's pretty much always a job there waiting for someone...
First of all let me start by saying to Onetravler, if I offended you I'm sorry. I came out here seeking advice from experienced nurses. But just as you thought I took your post wrong you definetly took mine wrong. All I was saying, is that it doesn't matter to me where I start in the hospital. I just want to get started. And to me you comments were not necessary as to whether I spent money on my education or my staying unemployed. I don't believe you wish me any luck and that is fine. I think your last post was very unkind but God Bless you Anyway,and I truly mean it. And Aaron C I check the classifieds and everywhere else too so before you all start with your snide remarks try and find out reasons okay. I know my post was brief because I was just asking a question. But I figured some one who was truly interested in helping or giving advice would ask why the lapse and before you ask yes, someone did inquire. But thanks for nothing. I will be fine. and just for the record I'm no longer seeking advice or suggestions.
