Nurse intern looking for job

Nurses General Nursing

Published

Hi I'm working as a nurse intern right now which is unpaid it could last 8-12 weeks and I'm pulling a full time shift with my preceptor. In the meantime I've decided to apply to open positions at other hospitals and use this as experience because it's the only floor experience I have. I'm curious to know if anyone found a job in NYC using a nurse internship as their experience on their resume. Thank u

Any experience is better than no experience....

unfortunately you live work in an area, that does not have nurse shortage, regardless of what nursing schools tell you...

my sugestion, look rural, or LTC.... Not ideal, but may be a paycheck, beginning to acquire experience

It's quite strange that a you, as a licensed nurse, is doing an unpaid internship.... Something's not adding up.

Yea I said I have had no luck finding a job and an internship even unpaid is better than no experience at all.
