Graduating Dec 2011 w/ BSN and BA (Social Work) Advice Please

Published

Hi Everyone-

I am new to AllNurses - so hello to all....after reading so many of the threads I can see that this site is a wealth of information for new and experienced nurses. Yay!!

About me I am currently finishing up two bachelor degrees, one is an BSN and the other is an BA in Social Work, I am changing careers after working in the banking industry for 15 years and working another 5 years at Johns Hopkins University in Development for their School of Arts and Sciences.

Couple of questions - - I am considering relocating from Charlotte, NC to another area upon graduating this coming December 2011 and am considering the following hospitals for my nurse residency, any sage advice would be appreciated.

Cleveland Clinic, Metro or University Hosp can anyone give me insight on their experience at these places including current pay for new grads?

Vanderbilt Medical in Nashville...same questions as above.

If I decide upon Cleveland can anyone give me advice on where I should live..I would prefer to live close ( I was told that there are plenty of luxury apartments on Euclid) after commuting back and forth between NYC and NJ for years prior to moving to Charlotte, I don't want to face a long commute.

Same question for anyone from Nashville.

Thanks in advance, I look forward to the dialogue♥
