Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

The NCLEX is aimed at a new grad so you shouldn't have anything to worry about as long as you study well.

However you are aware of retrogression and if not a US citizen or already have a visa to work in the US you are looking at several years waiting? Once you have a job you should get some sort of orientation

I wouldn't spend time worrying about the job as you prepare for the NCLEX. The NCLEX is enough to worry about at one time. After you pass and get your first job, you can look forward to orientation to your job duties. Make sure you watch and ask questions and you will pick up on what you need to do on the job. Good luck with what is in front of you.
