I was not ready to apply for jobs in february. I felt it was more important to concentrate on my school work. Apparently this was a huge mistake. All the hospitals I have contacted hired all their new grads in February! Does anyone know of a hospital that is still looking for new grads? I am willing to move. I have an excellent GPA, am graduating from a BSN program and have experience working as a nurse assistant. I am so frustrated right now! How can it be that hospitals only hire at one time per year!!!
In my area they hire the new grads for their orientation programs that start in June/July starting in Febuary also. I think they do it again in the fall for summer grads. Ask around different facilities shifting your focus from a new grad program to one with a decent orientation program perhaps. I'm not sure what to say but I'd try to think of something other than "I felt it was more important to concentrate on my school work". I'm in the DC/Balto. area and there are still lots of nursing jobs for inexperienced nurses especially on geri floors and in LTC. Good luck.
