I've had my RN license for about 2 weeks and cant seem to find a job in the hospital. I have applied and literally talked to the Nursing Recruitment office at the VA who said Med-Surg was Full! Bellevue who said it takes 4-6 weeks to get a call back so jus drop off your resume. At NY Ear & Eye Infirmary who said jus drop off your resume at the Front Desk, Beth Israel & Lenox Hill said to wait and NYU & Columbia want BSNs.

I had interviews at two non-profit Clinics in the LES who pay ok but its a supervisor position as a new grad I need to get my feet wet!

So tell me where do I find a NYC hospital job as a new grad??

It's only been two weeks, give it time. When my friend became licensed, it took a month before her employer called her for an interview. Good luck and here are some hospitals you can look into.

What school did you graduate from?

Have you tried NYP, Columbia or Cornell?

Also, I know that Winthrop University Hospital in Mineola starts their new grad programs a bit later than most others. If all else fails, it might be a way to get your foot into the door and then transfer to a NYC hospital as an experienced nurse.

Cornell is part of NYP and Columbia, they both want BSNs. Ill check out Winthrop. THanks!
