Hi Libra

I'm actually from the area you're looking in (I work at Ellis as a matter of fact) but I wanted to let you know that I just spoke to a friend of mine who's orienting at the VA in Albany, and he said they're hurting for RN's. It's a long application process, and it may take several weeks (or months) to get a call back, so if you do apply don't get discouraged when you don't hear back right away...

Good luck, keep your chin up! The right thing will come along when you are least expecting it!

Thanks 86toronado! Albany is about as far north as I'd like to go, so I'll definitely check it out. How does your friend like the VA so far?

You guys won't believe this... The hospital called 10 minutes ago and offered me the job!!!! I'm starting October 5th on the PCU! I am in shock! I can't believe I got it! I'll take this as a learning experience though- we should never get discouraged so quickly because things can turn around at the drop of a hat!

Thank you to everyone who offered kind words and advice... I'm so grateful to be a part of this community!

Congrats! I, too, got my first job offer yesterday as I graduated in May as well with my ADN and have been since looking and applying tirelessly with no call backs... That just goes to show that God does, indeed, have a plan for us even if it isn't easy to see! Good luck with your new job.
