Passed the nclex in July, started my first job in September. However was applying to jobs long before taking the nclex.

Had multiple job offers before I graduated from nursing school.

Specializes in Medical-Surgical/Float Pool/Stepdown.

2 months, but was working full-time at my job as a CNA during school. Would have taken a job offer from them sooner but wanted to pass the NCLEX first and not have the entire hospital know if I hadn't :bag:

Maybe you're interested in how long it took recent graduates to get jobs...? Because an open question like "how long did it take" to a really busy message board like this could give you lots of useless info! As in finding out how long it took people 5 years or more ago to get their first jobs.

Are you currently looking....or wondering when you should start applying?

What if i had a misdemeanor over 8years ago for petty theft?the boards know,they questioned me why i ddnt write it on my application and its because i thought its clears after 7years..i havent heard back since i wrote my letter to explain,but i did get my att and im taking my nclex in a month. If i pass..does anyone know if theyll be an extra wait to get license because of my conviction?also,will i have to report it when i apply for a job?its so embarrassing..i was young and dumb and been working with seniors for 7 years and it hasnt popped up for cna jobs,i dont know about lvn and im
