Finding a job for a new grad but foreign trained in Florida

Published

Hi everyone ! I am looking for an advise on how to find a job in my situation.

I graduated in 2005 from my Nursing School and Medical School in my native country but I only managed to get my US RN license this year in March and I couldn't get any hospital working experience except the one from the Nursing School and my last 4 years of my Medical School. Since I will get my working permit in 1-2 months from now, I am trying to find what are my best options. . Since I don't have the money and the time to study for the residency exams, I plan to work as a RN for 1-2 years in Miami,FL and then start my residency.

Is it a good idea to mention my 6 years of Medical School?

Where should I look for a job that offers an orientation/training program since I don't feel too confident in my nursing skills?

Tks

Isn't there anyone who might have an idea, at least about the mentioning of the medical school on the resume or interview?

It's very important for me because once I sent the resumes I can't take them back:(
