If you do not mind working in Durham....part of the "triangle area" which includes the towns Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill

I think Durham Regional is still placing new grads into their GEMS program......they were at our school for a luncheon in december and they are planning on coming back before we graduate.......I guess this means they still have openings?

What area in NC are you looking for a job. If you intrested in the Raleigh area the take Wake Med and Rex off your list. They are not hiring new Grads at this time. I applied to Johnston Memorial Hospital in Smithfield NC and Betsy Johnston Hospital in Dunn and were offered positions there. They are both 45-50 minutes from Raleigh. Also try Duke hospital, UNC, Durham Regional. Google Hospital in NC and start applying to them all. Good Luck on your search.

Oh, I am a new grad and got hired at Wakemed but only because I knew someone and they were willing to give me a chance.
