Feeling apprehensive about my first choice

[Terra Fermata]

I am a few weeks away from graduating with my BSN and have started applying to jobs. There were originally 10 hospitals on my list but most said I should apply only when I have my RN. I applied to two hospitals that didn't because about half the other students in my class have jobs already lined up and I got an offer from a very good, very well known hospital! It was a bit weird because I one day and then the following day got a call with the offer (seemed very fast to me).

The hospital has all that I want with salary, benefits, location, unit choice, and residency but I just have this odd tense feeling. It was my top pick for hospitals but it feels weird taking the first offer I get. It also feels weird because I am a loyal person and did my senior capstone clinical on a different unit than the one I applied for and feel like I may not like it as much. I loved the staff on the unit I had clinical on as well as the specialty but it was a little too fast paced for me (but maybe I could have grown into it; I don't know).

Don't know what to do. I want to accept and am highly leaning towards accepting but feel this unknown unease.

The cure to fear of the unknown is to get some facts. Before you commit, do some investigation. Can you visit the unit you will be working on? Talk to some people?
