   My references have already spoken to the recruiter from what i've been told. It wasn't just the recruiter. Not one person returned a call or followed thru. I only did what I was advised to do. i found it not only disappointing but very unprofessional...

   SBHCS, best of luck. I tried a few of their hospitals.....even had references. Unfortunately the nurse recruiter was not so pleasant and had other things to do than to recruit nurses, for Monmouth Med anyway. Try Kimball, a lot of my classmates wer...

   cmh25 replied to cmh25's topic in New Jersey

   Well, someone finally hired me! It's not the hospital. Not one of the hospitals here in Monmouth Cty and the surrounding area, was willing to hire a new grad! I find this very disappointing. Any how, I accepted a position as a dialysis nurse. After...

   In NJ most ask that you have some have med/surg experience, at least one year. Also, some of the hospitals will offer a training program for employees to transfer to the OR.

   Thanks for the encouragement :) I have started to apply to LTC's, offices are not hiring, most are asking for MA's or LPN's. It really is slim pickin's around here..... i'm just waiting to hear, now, from the LTC's.

   I have never applied to so many jobs and not receive a response. Follow up letters and phone calls have been made. references used. what else can I do? I need to start working. Any advice? I am truly beginning to believe, I just wasted away 30000 dol...

10. New grad looking for job....

    cmh25 replied to Yendis's topic in Career Support

    I have never heard of any hospital near me having specific 'new grad orientation'. In some of the other forums, I came across various states that offer residency programs for new nurses, but definitely not NJ. Some friends of mine just got hired at...

11. New grad looking for job....

    cmh25 replied to Yendis's topic in Career Support

    I too am a recent grad, associate degree. I started to apply after I knew I passed the NCLEX. Just like you, it seems I am the only one w/o a job! The local newspapers have not had anything for RN's. I have been using Monster.com, CareerBuilder and ...

    Hi, I am a recent nursing grad in NJ. about 1/4 of my classmates also had 4 yr degree in another area of study. my best advice to you, would be to enter an associate program, then transfer directly to a BSN program. Most schools offer a 'bridge' pro...

15. Failed Nclex

    cmh25 replied to almostarn's topic in NCLEX

    Both are good books, however, Kaplan spends more time on teaching you how to take the test, including multiple methods. After taking the nclex, I truly believe you can study as much information you want, it won't help. as long you know the basics of...
