New transplant to Ann Arbor soon

I will be a GN this coming December and have already started hunting down jobs in the Ann Arbor area. I am graduating from a school in upstate NY and plan on moving there because I know people in Ann Arbor and really like the city. As it stands, the jobs appear to be slim, only 2 open for GNs at U of M and I haven't seen many others at surrounding hospitals.

I guess a big question is as a GN, do I only apply to hospitals that say they have GN slots? Or can I send a blanket application in hopes of getting an offer? As I said, only one hospital I saw had spots for GNs. Downside is I could easily find a good job here in NY, but would prefer to move out of state. Some help on getting things squared away on going to michigan would be great.

Thanks!
