I'm a new grad nurse with a BSN and RN license. I was wondering if any army recruiter can tell me the exact experience requirement to serve in the reserves and active nurse corp.
The website says one year for active but when I chatted with a recruiter hes telling me two years for active and 6 month for reserve. Another recruiter I spoke to is saying one year. Any insight would be appreciated!

I'm not a recruiter, but know that those websites are not frequently updated. The recruiting situation is constantly changing. You can always pretend to be from another region of the country, talk to a different recruiter, and verify the info that way. A healthcare recruiter will have the best info. I would try the AF and Navy. They are still taking new grad nurses. The job is pretty similar across all 3 branches.
