Moving from TX to CALI

Published

Good evening,

I am graduating from Nursing School in December 2015 and plan on taking my NCLEX in Texas (since it is apart of the compact) but I need to move back to CALI for my family. Does anyone know how hard it is to get a first time RN-BSN job in the Sacramento area? Or how hard it is to get my license for CA?

Any suggestions on where to work in the Sacramento Area?

I appreciate any advice.

It is extremely difficult finding work as a new grad in CA, and 10 times worse in Sacramento. With an out-of-state education and no experience, expect to be without a job for a year or longer.

Getting licensed in CA takes about three months at the minimum. The California BRN is the slowest board of nursing in the entire country.

Thank you very much for your input, I appreciate it! I figured that was the case in having to move back to Cali but I was just hoping that I was wrong.
