Thread moved to California Nursing forum to elicit further response.
Are you a newly licensed nurse or a new graduate? There is a difference. If you did not graduate within the past 6-12 months from a professional nursing program (RN program) then you are not considered a new grad. One is also not considered a new grad if they have worked as a licensed nurse even for a short time whether in the US or another country.

Unfortunately, my hospital has hired all the new grads for this winter already because they have already started. We usually run 2 new grad programs per year. The summer session starts at the end of summer. Applications are usually accepted all year round though. Have you checked to see which SoCal hospitals have new grad programs and applied for all of them? Does the place you currently volunteer at have a new grad program? The job market is horrible right now; have you considered relocating?
I graduate 4 months ago and I have ADN and which hospital has new great program there are asking for BSN, so I am Disappointed and I don't know what to do!
Most new grad programs are now limited to those with a BSN, sorry. (And this isn't only in California but a trend across the nation)
