I am a ED RN of 4 years with some RRT work as well. I am very interested in pivoting into ICU, I live in work in the bay area (Stanford). I have my BLS, ACLS, PALS, TNCC, NIHSS and PCCN. I have put in at least 60 applications to various ICU's at different hospitals and I haven't even gotten as much as an interview. I am getting discouraged and almost at the point of moving back home since I know I could get ICU experience there. Any tips? Tricks? Advice?
Btw I have also applied to Stanford's CCTP program twice and have not had a luck.
