The only info that you need about nursing school is where you graduated from, the level of degree and the year you graduated.
You can mention awards or academic achievement too. |

I know of a GREAT website that might help you A LOT!!! (it's very busy and active, and has separate forums for new grads, job hunting, etc!)
It even has separate message boards for all 50 states, so people ask about who's hiring, whether so and so is good to work for, starting pay, etc.
*allnurses.com*
Good Luck, oh, and congrats on getting through nursing school!!!!  | |

I realize you may already know about this site (that I mentioned above), but I went ahead and found this board that deals specifically with RESUME HELP
Resume Help for nurses | |

Because all of the online resume places say to put your skills you did during practicums and preceptorship.
I would not list them all because it is a requirement to take all of the normal rotations (OB, surgical, long-term care, etc.).
What I would highlight is your final semester rotation as in most nursing programs, it is a consolidation type of thing where you spend full hours in one specific place. Not sure if that is how your program ran, but for example, my consolidation was in the ICU. Highlighting that is what actually got me my first job, in the ICU. Had I consolidated in the community, I would not necessarily have the skill set to handle that unit as my first job.
Good luck! | |

...."I would not list them all because it is a requirement to take all of the normal rotations (OB, surgical, long-term care, etc.)."
Sorry, I didn't get back to this thread until now.
I agree with Twins Rock. It is expected that you rotate through every service required for your program's curriculum. To repeat it in a resume is redundant. The interviewer/nurse recruiter knows what is required and that you passed. If you didn't, you wouldn't be sending the resume or scheduling an interview, KWIM?
Best of luck!
