New Grad RN's in San Antonio

U.S.A. Texas

Published

So, for all of those new nurses in San Antonio who are pretty much at wit's end looking for job, I just had an interview and was hired at Southwest General Hospital for their new grad RN program. They still have 8-10 spots left to fill before they new class start on the 10th of October. Yes, it's such short notice but the nurse recruiter told me to spread the word. So if you're interested go their website www.swgeneralhospital.com and go to the careers page and apply. Base rate is $25/hr with shift and weekend differentials, with 36 hours a week.

Well the class does start on Monday and they will want to confirm that you'll be relocating immediately if offered the job.

UPDATE: The start for the program has been pushed back to the 17th. So for those who still want a chance, now's the time to go for it. =] If anyone need the recruiter's e-mail, let me know.

Hi,

Iamblessed2011 or KiaP38 RN can either of you send me the email address for the recruiter. Is this program only for BSN grads?

I am in an ADN program in Maryland and I graduate in December.

Any other information will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Kia, I checked the website but it shows that the position is PRN or On Call and do not pay benefits. Can you tell me if this is true?

Sorry for the delay. I've been out of town. What I know is that I think it is for BSN RNs. I'm not 100% sure so apply and see what they say. Next it's not PRN, it's pool per diem. Meaning they they pay hourly, 36 hours guaranteed a week, with no benefits for the first 90 days of training. After that they will assign you a permanent position on a specific floor, and benefits will be added. Also there is a 18 month contract. Which is common for most if not all new grad programs.

@Iammblessed From what I know, it's pool, so I don't know what floor I'll be on first.

hey guys, I was just wondering if it has started yet? I went online to look for it, and it is still up so I applied. Hopefully I will get the same results as you two and get a job! I graduated in May and got my boards in June, and STILL trying to find a job. Congrats to you two for your new job!
