How many of you have...?

Okay, since I didn't get many responses at all from my previous question, I'll ask it in a different way.

Has anyone of you who is a RN with a multi-state license ever been hired and relocated from one compact state to another compact state and then of course, later applied for a license in that state? I'm curious to know how often, if at all this happens. I'm not talking about traveling nurses. I'm talking straight up,.. was the employer willing to hold that job for you considering you'd be relocating from another state, so long as you had a multi-state license to practice?

Thanks!

The reason you aren't getting replies is likely the ambigious title to your thread.

Yes, I moved from VA to MD - worked under VA license until MD came in.

Yes, I moved from AZ to CO and worked for over a month with my AZ (compact) license before getting my CO license.

got a job in florida, while waiting for my license in ny, they waited for me for about 3 months until all background check went throught.

Thanks guys for your feedback! This has helped to boost my confidence to go ahead and apply for and get a multi-state license!! Thanks again, and blessings to you!

Quote from finallyRN7Umm...one has to come on in and actually READ my thread before REPLYING. So, perhaps if one doesn't reply to it, I'll assume because they plain and simple aren't interested in doing so. I'll assume that this applies to you. Thanks for visiting .
