States/Cities looking for New Grads?

Nurses Job Hunt

Published

I'm getting ready to graduate in Dec. and am thinking of making a life change and moving. Not only am I ready for a change in scenary. (I've been living in the same town for most of my life) but the nursing field in my area is very saturated. I know that there are other areas of the country where new grad jobs are more prevelant. Anyone have any suggestions?

Specializes in OR.

I graduated from UT El Paso, then moved to Virginia. It took me months to find work; all my classmates seemed to find jobs in town immediately. More than half of the population of El Paso speaks Spanish at home, so if you are bilingual that will help, but it doesn't seem to have been a requirement - non-Spanish-speaking folks seemed to do fine too. El Paso is kind of big and sprawling, and the desert environment isn't for everyone, but the people are friendly and it's one of the safest big cities in the US.

Specializes in Critical Care; Cardiac; Professional Development.

Yep, best place right now to get hired is anywhere along the Mexican border.

Specializes in CCU, SICU, CVSICU, Precepting & Teaching.
