Hii, I'm "applying" a job application for a registered nurse (Practice from School)
I am currently a high school student, and my days at school go from 7:45- 2:10
I'm don't know if I should do a DAY, EVENING, or NIGHT Shift.
I also need help of if I should do PART-TIME, FULL-TIME, TEMPORARY, or PERDIEM
I don't know anything about a RN, and if I should do PART-TIME what specify days or hours are available. I said that I would work on weekend and hoildays
Please Help!!

Provided this is just practice:
A new graduate RN should check all 3 (Day, Eve, and Night) and take whatever they can get. Most new RNs will start on night shift and then move to another shift a few years down the road.
Part time is less than 40 hours a week but more than 24 or just enough to be benefited (health insurance, paid days off). This is great for those taking additional college classes or have kids and a spouse.
Per Diem (PRN) is as needed. You will not have a set schedule or benefits. You will be used only when they are short of coverage on a shift like when someone calls in sick or is one vacation. You might be expected to work on short notice.
For most positions, you will be required to work some weekends usually in rotation like every other. Even those who are Part time or PRN will have a weekend requirement.
The exception to the weekend and night shifts will be for offices and departments which only have hours during the day and Mon - Fri.
Students may try to work all weekends and a few evenings on a Part time or Per Diem bases.
You're applying for a job you aren't qualified to do? You need to go to college to be an RN hon. Temporary is probably what you want if it's some school shadowing project but you won't get hired into that job if you're not a licensed RN.
