Re: My 1st NICU interview!!!!

I know this thread is a good 2 years old, but I just hope the job market has not been hit too harshly as I am also a second degree student wanting to work in the nicu, and the nicu alone!!! I hope the nurse managers will be as open of new nurse graduates when i start looking for jobs in a year (yikes!) and that i get as much luck as the OP did :-D

Re: My 1st NICU interview!!!!

Hi guys! I am responding!!
Sorry I never updated. I took the 2nd job in Cincinnati at a big NICU and it was the BEST decision i have ever made! It will be 2 years this fall and i learn more and more each day. I am so glad I chose this hospital...I dont think i would be where i am today if i chose a different job.

Good luck to all you future NICU nurses!!

Re: My 1st NICU interview!!!!

Being relatively close to Cincinatti, Im wondering if you're hospital's NICU will hire new GNs in terms of the downfall economy?

Re: My 1st NICU interview!!!!

I work at Good Samaritan Hospital. When I was hired, they were hiring new grads but that was with the old manager. Now we have a new manager and I have heard rumors that they aren't hiring new grads, but I am not sure if that's the case. I know we are hiring now. I would just look online to see what the job description says. I think the website is trihealth.com.

Re: My 1st NICU interview!!!!

Glad to hear that you came to Cincinnati. I am a nursing student who just finished my sophomore year in a BSN program. My goal is to become a NICU nurse. Just wanted to say congrats on the position at Good Sam, and thank you for starting this thread. There were a few really good responses that I think will be helpful for new grads!
