Passed the NCLEX in an Unusual Time?

[Phoenix94]

Hi everyone,

I graduated from nursing school 2 months ago and recently got my Nurse license.  I am applying to different New Grad programs, but the cohort start dates tend to be around 6 months away. I'm concerned as my finances cannot hold off until the start date, and I'm not sure if hospitals are willing to train me with my clinical experience alone as my nursing experience. Are there any considerations I should account for, and what advice would you give to someone in my scenario? Thank you in advance!
