SD New Grads: Jobs Available!!!

[LotusRN1972]

Okay Ya'll!!!

After ready about how NO ONE will hire new grad RN's,graduating w/ my BSN, and studying for the NCLEX in August '11, I have had it!!!

Where we start working may not be where we end up in 20 years, people. There are so many opportunities out there for new grads, it is staggering:idea: I made it my business to look for and succeed at landing a RN job and

I DID!!! Look at these gems:

*All Skilled Nursing Facilities

* Cancer Clinics

* Hair Club For Men (YES!!! THEY WANT YOU!!!)

* DaVita Dialysis Centers (They train (and make a big DEAL about it) and they WANT new Grads

* Frensius (sp) Dialysis Centers

* La Jolla Home Healthcare (Look at he site, they WANT new grads,too)

* Clinics in general

* Rehab hospitals

*CRAIGSLIST Healthcare (be careful)

* ALL SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES (oh, I wrote this one first )

Please check these places out these places. The key is experience; we all need it, yet don't abuse it, get at least 9 months-1year of experience or more.

Don't forget we will ALL be Elderly one day; just sayin'

If anyone else has anymore examples of NEW GRAD WELCOME jobs, PLEASE post them, ALL is appreciated!!!

Thanks All

Good Luck,

Hi PandaRN11, I have been applying at Alvarado for quite some time now but I have not received any calls yet =( This hospital is close to where I lived and it would be so nice to land a job there. Did you just apply on smarthires and just waited for their call? It is appropriate to show my face and speak with the managers? I really want this bad =(

Hi Craziechiq! I have been applying to Alvarado for quite some time now and have not received any calls yet ;( I really want to land a job there instead of me moving far away. I live like 15 mins away and this is an ideal place for me to work and start my RN career. I would love to be employed at a hospital that serves SD community which I'm a part of. Any advice for me? Should I do a walk-in to meet with the managers?

How is the interview for Alvarado Hospital.. I am pretty nervous. What type of question do they ask? I am a new grad rn so I have no experience but I worked as a nurses aide for 4 years. Are they new grad friendly?

[everaglan]

Did they ask situational questions?

[whatarrythmia]

has anyone had experience interviewing for Alvarado's ICU? Any tips on the kinds of quesstions they would ask?
