Are you graduating in May or June, 2013? We have 7-8 more months to go! I would love to get a thread going to see how many of us are 'here' and see if we can keep each other encouraged till we see the finish line! We are almost there!

May 13! In Peds, Med/Surg, Pharm, and Clinical. Have OB and OB clinical in a couple of months. Good luck, everyone!

Congrats to you Liz!!!!!!

The job market is pretty good here in Rural NC. For both ADN and BSN new grads. 50% of our class already have job offers, we start interviewing for most hospitals towards the middle or end of March. The past 10 years our school has had between 85% to 100% Job placement within 4 months after graduation. Most have secured job offers before graduation. I've had an offer in the CVICU where I did preceptorship and in the ER at the same hospital.

We just ordered our pins. PatMac where do you live in NC? Most of our class just started applying. I've had 1 interview, and hoping I get an offer before graduation. I talked to a girl from the class that just graduated Tuesday and she said everyone in the class has a job offer, so seems pretty decent here.

The job market is tough in CT especially if you don't have a BSN. I have tons of medical experience so I am hoping that works in my favor.
