No experience

I am a foreign grad and recently passed my NCLEX. I have been searching RN jobs online and I can't seem to find hospitals, clinics, LTC that are accepting RNs with no experience. How the hell am I supposed to gain my experience if I can't land a job for not having experience?? I still tried submitting my resume online even if the requirement states that you need experience. I even went to hospitals itself to hand my resume directly to the HR, but they will just ask me to apply on their website or I need an appointment to go to their HR department

How did you find your first job? Please help me!

    Welcome to the club! It's very hard to find a job in or around NYC if you don't have connections. I have realized that over the past five years that I've been here. Good luck to you.

    new grad jobs are hard to find because there are so many schools putting out new grads every semester. Plus if you are a foreign grad it's even more difficult due to the HR not wanting to deal with equivalence of a foreign RN program to a US program if you have zero experience. Look on craigslist jobs in the healthcare sections. There are jobs posted for clinics, LTC, allergy medical offices, etc. These your resume goes straight to the manager without the electronic resume scanning that hospitals have. More likely to get a call back this way.
