Moving to Houston area as a new grad

Hello,
I am graduating in May and planning to move to the Houston Area (Clear Lake) June 1. I'm looking to work in an ER. I've looked at Clear Lake Regional Medical Center, and my dream place is Memorial at the Texas Medical Center. Memorial has internship programs that they hire for in June and January, and say an "ideal" candidate would have a GPA of 3.0 or higher. My GPA is close to 3.0 but not quite so I'm unsure whether or not that would put me out of the running. I'm also wondering if it would be better for me to start out in a smaller hospital while I'm still learning as opposed to a bigger place like the Texas Medical Center. Any thoughts? If anyone has any experience or recommendations as what the best thing to do as a new grad moving into the area that would be great!
Thanks!
Kristen
