Places to work

Published

As a new graduate, since its hard to find a job especially I'm ny, what other state or states is better to work as a registered nurse. Or what agency is willing to relocate a new graduate? Cause its not easy to just get up aND leave.

Unfortunately, the job market is tight in many places right now, and nursing schools continue to pump out graduates twice a year that continue to flood the saturated market. Your best bet may be to look to rural areas and/or areas where there aren't nursing schools to flood the job market. As for agencies that relocate nurses, I don't think you'll find any that don't at least require experience if they provide that service at all. Many of the "perks" of needing nurses have disappeared- sign on bonuses, relocation assistance, etc. I can empathize with you that's it's not easy to just up and leave, but the alternative may be having to wait a long time before you find that first nursing position.

do a google/indeed search of nursing positions in an area that you are willing to go to. Dont bother looking at major cities. I got interviews from all the satellite hospitals just outside the city but none of the big hospitals would touch me. Even in NY and surrounding areas there are bound to be smaller hospitals outside of the big cities that are still looking for nurses.
