California's 2009 New Grad RN Program- Who's hiring right now?

[piscesmama]

Greetings.

This is my story- I graduated from Nursing School in May 2008 (ADN) and passed my boards in October 2008.

I live north of San Fran and have yet to find a New Grad Program. I've been on Allnurses since last summer when I started studying to pass the boards. I used Allnurses especially the "random facts" thread which helped me pass the boards with flying colors. My family is ready to move out of the area because there is no new grad program avail out here.

I have spent hours online looking for New Grad positions in Washington State, Southern Ca, New Mexico, and Ashville NC. These are the areas, along with the Bay Area that I am interested in. I am looking to see if someone would like to buddy up or we can all help continue this thread and we can help search together for all the possible positions in the areas mentioned above or just in California. I have found that the work done alone is not enough or that I have just missed an application date, or I didn't know that blank blank just hired for the season.

The random facts thread was so hot because it was encompassing info about one main event with up to the minute info. Maybe a thread like "California's 2009 New Grad RN Program- Who's hiring right now?"- and it would include SNF's and whatever we can think of that a new nurse can do in the community, would be like the "random facts" thread. I'm sure I will hear from an Allnurses thread monitor about if this is OK or not.

At this point I am just trying to be creative and use the best resource online, which to me has been this sight.

I hope to hear from you soon.

I found this website:

http://288th.com/

that gives job info for new grads

Also Trinity in ND is hiring new grads, there is a signing bonus and a little relocation assistance reimbursement

Has anyone been scheduled for any interviews for New Grad programs mentioned in this thread? Someone posted that CHLA called for phone interview in another thread.

Let's all keep each other informed so we know which hospitals are beginning their interview process.

Good Luck to ALL!!

San Francisco General Hospital has an opening in the PACU. If you look at the qualifications, if you did a senior preceptorship in ICU/PACU you could apply as a new grad.

Its crazy how much SF General pays for their RN. That hospital is down the street from my house. I did almost 10 years of volunteer work there, but they turned away my application too many times. someday!!!!
