Specializes in New Grad RN.

Hi everyone,

I am a newly graduated nurse living in the CA bay area.  I am having a difficult time trying to find my first job despite applying to numerous positions and hospital new graduate programs.  My passion and dream is to become a labor and delivery, mother/baby, or postpartum nurse as women's health and obstetrics is what led me to pursue nursing in the first place.  Due to my lack of success in the job search process, I have began to consider other avenues.  One avenue that has peaked my interest is that of a surgery nurse in an IVF fertility clinic. 

If I begin my career in a facility outside of the hospital, will this limit my ability to ever work in the hospital later on down the line? 

Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated! 

Will this limit your career? No.
