moving from illinois to ohio after school. advice needed!

Hey everyone!! I am going to be graduating May 2009 from a nursing program in Illinois (BSN-RN). I plan on moving into the Cincinnati area after graduation. Everytime I ask anyone about what I need to do to be licensed in Ohio instead of Illinois, I get random answers all over the board. One is that I can just take the NCLEX for Ohio. Someone else said to take it in Illinois, then apply for a license in Ohio. I really don't want to do that if I don't have to because I don't want to pay more money than needed (school has drained me). So any help with that would be appreciated. Also, I have some ideas of decent hospitals from reading some of these posts, but does anyone have any suggestions as to what hospitals or companies to definitely stay away from?? Thanks for any input!!!
