Getting hired without nursing experience

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone has any advice for an almost new grad who has never been an NA or an extern/intern. I did well as a student and I am comfortable in the clinical setting, but each summer I chose to return to my other passions: coaching, swim instruction and lifeguarding. I was wondering if anyone had any tips for spinning these jobs into positive experience in the eyes of a prospective employer. Cheers!

Thanks for the support! :). Definitely looking forward to getting the last few weeks of school and then NCLEX behind me so I can really focus on the job hunt!

If any lurkers have any advice I'd love to hear it, especially if you experienced something similar.
