New Grads, I just have a simple idea to help us all out of this situation where we cannot get jobs because no hospitals are hiring new graduates anymore. I think if we ban together and get petitions going stating that since the hospitals or their employee's are black balling all new grads than when we do gain experience we surely will not work for those facilities and send these petitions to the CEO's of the hospital. The only support from nurses we have is each other, so think about that when you can do something in the future and remember those who made this so difficult for us. The hospitals need us more than they need them. We are the future, and if we are all angry because of being black balled by the nursing community that precedes us and won't work for the hospitals if they don't put a stop to this! We need to speak loud and we need to stop begging like we are any lesser and demand a little respect. Remember what happened to us when we are in the power positions, whats good for the goose is good for the gander. The problem isn't that there arent positions, I see the same position open for months rather than be filled by a new grad. We are being treated unfairly and stereotyped. Hello, Im an RN too? A loud one that thinks if we unite we might have a chance.
