In process FNP need help with job now

[tjbrin]

I am currently working on getting my Associate to FNP. I am a registered nurse working for an agency so travel to different hospitals. My question is should I be looking for a permanent position somewhere to advance into my FNP once I get there. I was thinking if I started working part-time at a doctor's office or something like that it would take away need to search for a position as a new FNP. Any suggestions on possible places to work as an RN to advance into a FNP position? What should I be looking for? Was thinking about applying at different doctors offices near my house and including in the cover letter that I'm looking to further my career to FNP. Didn't know if they would hire me now knowing that was in my future. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

Where can you complete an Associates program for FNP?

OP said Associates to FNP. It's basically a program that requires you to have an RN degree, gives you the BSN (which may or may not be awarded) and then you enter their MSN program.

Gotcha! RN to MSN skipping BSN. I'm in a BSN to DNP now so similar idea.

If you do well in clinical and try to get clincals set up at places which are new graduate friendly or needing to fill spots you should have a leg up. As long as you do satisfactory in clinics and present yourself well of course. a poor last rotation can ruin your reputation in the network if your not careful. I am sure you will do great thought, dont stress :)
