New Grad looking for job in CA

Published

I just graduated from nursing school in the beginning of may from Portland, OR and am still waiting for my ATT. But my biggest problem is trying to get hired as a new grad in California! There are 3 hospitals in the Monterey Bay area I have been applying to and talking to the nurse recruiters, but they are not hiring new grads right now! I don't understand why, because they have at least 13 RN positions open, but do not consider new grads for them, and only RN II/III, with at least 1 year of experience! Any advice? I have also put in my resume at several nearby clinics, to fall back on. But still nothing.

i'm in the same boat. it's very hard right now for us new grads.

I can tell you from experience that it is almost impossible to get a job in the Monterey Bay area, whether you are a new grad or experienced.
