No luck!!!

I hear you! the NP job market here is horrible. I am an ACNP that has been looking for a job for few months as well with no luck. I am looking into getting licensed in other States.

Good luck

I graduated from UMiami in 2009. The job market was depressing back then as well. I would apply for everything with no luck. I was also not fluent in Spanish, so that was a huge factor in not being able to find a job. What finally worked for me and I recommend everyone doing this. I sent out 20 CVs and cover letters to random clinics I wanted to work, from South Miami to Fort Lauderdale. I had no idea if they were hiring, but I had nothing to lose. I wanted to work for a private neurosurgery practice. I had an overwhelming response. Out of 20 letters I sent out, 16 responded requesting interviews. This is how I found my first job as an NP. I even had to narrow it down and choose from 3 amazing offers I had received to pick my first job. My classmates saw what a good response I had through doing this, that they did this as well with family practice, pediatrics, plastic surgery, etc. They were also able to find their first jobs as well. Make sure you are also looking on indeed, enp network, and surprisingly Craigslist has NP job postings as well. Hope you find something soon!

I moved out of state because I was not getting job as a new grad. Look beyond your city and state. NP market is so saturated these days. No one wants to train a new grad

I read a post of yours last summer, when I was looking for my first NP job. I did exactly what you said and mailed out CVs to every general/bariatric surgeon in my area and landed my dream job as a Surgical NP. To the OP, do it because it really works!

Thanks guys I will try and do ASAP!
