You can do a google search (or whatever search engine you prefer) on "resume new graduate".

I thought this one looked good:

Best of luck on your job search

You also may want to emphasize face-to-face contact with nurse managers and recruiters whenever possible. If you reduce their image of you to only the words on a resume, your lack of experience will stand out. However, if they see and meet an appealing young nurse who makes a good personal impression, that will be to your advantage.

Job fairs, career fairs, etc. can be great for that. You can also "network" as you do your school clinical rotations. (e.g. Ask the nurse manager about the hiring process and/or if she will be hiring new grads in the near future, etc.) By showing your interest and giving them a chance to see and hear you as a real person (and not just an impersonal document on paper or online), you help yourself to stand out from the crowd that only submits a document.

i have a great resume book, it shows examples and explains how to write a great resume using what you have. one example shows how to play up on your education if you don't have a lot of experience, such as a new grad. you go into more details on what you learned. i'm sure you can find a similar book in your local library or book store. it also shows how to play up experience and volunteer work if you don't have a lot of education, in case anyone else was wondering. hope this helps.
