Is this bad?

Published

I have no desire right now to look for a job. I have put in only two applications. Right now I just want to bask in graduating and relaxing. Im just tired and want to take it easy but our instructors say jump into it and get your resume out there asap. Maybe my being just scared and feeling Im not ready has something to do with it??? :banghead:

No, school is exhausting. Therefore, you deserve to accrue some relaxation before jumping into the jungle again. I wish you the best of luck!

The only exception would be if you're interested in a specialty nursing area that has fellowships or some other special kind of graduate nurse program that starts shortly after graduation. I know there are several of those in this area, competition is stiff, and the majority start in June and also sometime after the winter classes graduate.

Get your resume's out there. Then...relax. It may take awhile for them to contact you.

Have you gotten your license yet? That is enough to focus on now. But it will look strange if you stay out of work an extended period of time.

Are new grad jobs easy to find in your area? If they're at all hard to find, I wouldn't recommend waiting. I was relaxed about looking for a job, and I don't want to tell you how long I've been looking now.

Thanks for the advice and enforcement that I do deserve a break lol

I have not got my license yet, but the nursing homes are hiring new grads right out of school. My school is even sending out our resumes to many places for us. I have applied for a few on my own I have not gotten my ATT letter or test date as of yet. I am really kind of leary to even apply since I don't have my license yet. What happens if I fail the first time?? Just so many worries on my mind. :confused:
