I would appreciate any hints or ideas for getting that firts job in NC. Is there any help how I can start netwoking in this area? Any new grads loking for jobs here?

Right now I am looking for the job anywhere in NC. Any help is appeciated.

Specializes in LTC.

I graduated from an LVN program in CA in Dec 08 and ended up moving to NC because I could not find a job. Anyhow, since you have a BSN, you should find it relatively easy to find a job. I overheard a few soon-to-be graduate nurses (RNs) complaining about how all the hospitals (mostly Moses Cone owned) will now only hire BSN nurses. There are lots of hospitals from Raleigh going down I-40 all the way to Winston-Salem. Try Alamance Regional Medical Center in Burlington or Forsythe(sp?) Medical Center. I think the Kernersville (in between Greensboro and Winston-Salem) medical center has finally opened.

Thanks Sensoria17

I've been trying to apply for anything that does not require experience as RN. I've applied to few places in Raleigh and so on. Ideally, I would like to be placed in teaching hospitals like UNC or DUKE. So far, I am waiting to hear from them.

I did my preceptoship in the NICU and this would be my dream job. I am trying to apply to any NICU/ pediatric related job postings. However, I don't expect that this might work, and so any critical care RN jobs would be awesome.
