   cheesecake89 replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts

   Well I'm glad you guys got jobs right off the bat no problem. I've been trying since December/January as a new grad. I don't have any connections, so networking isn't possible for me. I've called nurse managers just to be turned down saying they a...

   What floor of MGH do you work on? I heard that was one of the hospitals that has a hiring freeze.

3. Can't get a job :(

   cheesecake89 replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts

   Hi SarahBeth, I'm going to apply! That isn't too far from Mass where it would be an issue! It seems that the new grad jobs are for people that have not passed their NCLEX yet. I have already passed the NCLEX. So do you think if I applied to the n...

   Where do you work SarahBeth? That sounds like the ideal nursing job.

5. Can't get a job :(

   cheesecake89 replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts

   Hey SarahBeth, The majority of the recruiters that are going to be there are from nursing homes/long term care facilities, such as Kindred Health Care, also home health care agencies. So I do plan on going, since I'm focusing more on applying to the...

   Okay guys, I've started applying to nursing homes! Anyone know of any nursing homes/long term care facilities that are actively looking to hire nurses and willing to take new grads? One of the ones I applied for, I applied online and then right after...

    cheesecake89 replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts

    Hi, I know what you're saying. But... I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years, and we've been long distance for that time already due to school. He just got a job himself in MA so I want to be with him. I'd rather not do long distance anymore. Do...

    I applied to jobs before I even graduated and long before I ever took the NCLEX.

    cheesecake89 replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts
