Good News!!! An RN new grad program opened yesterday. They are accepting RNs with less than 12 months experience! I applied to L&D and NICU. I'm a little nervous about breaking the news to my nurse manager tomorrow.
Also, do you think it's ok if I send an email to the nurse managers of the units I applied to? I found their email addresses through my work email since this new grad program is with the same organization, but different hospital. Or would that be creepy? I just want to make myself stand out!
Thanks again!

Hi everyone! :)
I have only been an RN for 7 months. I started out in a float pool doing rotations in medical oncology, med-surg/orthopedic, and tele. I made tele my "home unit" in December. I don't enjoy the floor I am working on at all. I know that I definitely want to work postpartum, L&D or in the NICU! Any advice on how to get closer to my goal? I emailed the Director of Women's Services at my hospital about a week and a half ago to see if there are any classes I could take or how I should prepare and she never responded.
(She probably laughed when she saw I only have 7 months experience!)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
