You could look around in the NICU forum, there are threads where prospective applicants have asked for advice. I got hired into the NICU straight from school and in my cover letter and interview, I emphasized that I liked the NICU because of the total care, ability to become an expert in a specialized area, and getting to provide lots of education and support for the family. Be sincere and let your passion shine through, but make sure you express realistic expectations too. I would advise against gushing about how you just love babies and want to hold them and care for them all day. I mostly work in the level III unit where we cluster care and promote minimal stimulation, so I may go 3 weeks without actually holding a baby.

Good luck, I love working in the NICU :)
