There are no non or hospital RN positions anywhere that I am eligible. Everywhere it's one year experience at least.

Every job is going to advertise at least one year experience minimum. The key is to just simply ignore that. Everyone that I know has landed jobs and their not all new grad hospital jobs.

LTC and SNF facilities seem to be the most willing to hire new grads because such facilities are the least desirable to work in due to their harsh high stress job requirements.

When I got my first job in a SNF as a new grad, they literally hired me on the spot without even interviewing me. And I live in Southern California.

what worked for you, may not be working for others.

I am glad you are happy with your RN position at SNF.

Hello it sounds like you are looking at the big teaching hospitals but I would try some small hospitals as well. Try VVGMC in Victorville they are in in need of many RN's. They hire new grads because of the high turn over rate.

Perhaps maybe you misunderstood me. The SNF position was my first RN job. I don't currently work in a SNF. I currently work in the ER.

Try joining "New Grad RN CA" on facebook if you haven't already done so. It's a very supportive group and people are constantly sharing job opportunities for new grads. If it weren't for that group I wouldn't have the job I have now. Good luck!!

Thanks SV I'm looking at all hospitals nationwide but I'll google the one you mentioned.
