New Grad Definition

Say a new grad accepts a position in a nursing home or clinic and works there for 6 months to 1 year. To transition to acute care, would they no longer be considered a new grad, and therefore would have to compete for jobs alongside nurses with acute care experience for positions that would require X amount of acute care experience?

Is it better for new grads to turn down clininc or nursing home positions if they plan to be in acute care?

    I worked at an ortho rehab facility for 10 months and when I applied for a new job at a hospital, I was considered a new grad. It was great! I had 10 months experience and got the new grad time to orient. I believe you are considered a new grad up until one year.
