Persistent new grad lands the job!!

Nurses Job Hunt

Published

Hello all! You may have seen my postings about panicking over how long the unemployment would last. It's finally over, I landed my dream job in the ICU. And I want to tell you DO NOT GIVE UP! This will pass, keep putting in your applications everywhere and following up. I called this hospital about two times a week for two solid months before I got an interview. HR told me it was because I was so persistent that they called me. So keep applying, keep calling, stop by and try to speak with HR, do whatever you have to ( politely and within reason ) that you can to catch their attention! Finding a job as a new grad isn't impossible, just more difficult than we imagined.

Just remember: This too shall pass.

Hugs to everyone, I know it's not an easy road.

Specializes in Pediatrics.

Congratulations! It's so refreshing to hear someone that snagged an amazing hospital job straight out of school!

Thanks! I'm super excited:)

Congrats! And thank you for the advice! I'll be right there job hunting next July.
