They just basically asked me what drew me to labor and delivery, what can I bring to the table. I mostly showed that I was interested and made eye contact. And I sent a follow up email after my email thanking them.

I worked Med surg for two years because people said it was the foundation on nursing. I also had an interest for OB/GYN nursing and applied for some L and D jobs. I reached out to the managers of these units via email and even phone call. I now start my new job in L and D monday! Show then hat you really have a passion and they will seeQ good luck!

Update! I was offered the job a week later! You guys tips really helped! Thank you

Update: I have an interview with the L and D unit at the hospital I currently work at. Fingers crossed I get it!

Hello! I have been a nurse for two years, working on a medical surgical unit as a RN and charge nurse. I have always had an interest in maternity birth and care. In school I was never chosen to precept on these units and I've applied with no luck yet. What's the secret into getting hired or yet alone an interview. I'm staying positive but it's very hard. I am willing to do things outside of work to prepare and get me a job working with this populating. Please help

this sounds like me I made a similar post. my only difference is I have no pediatric background working as a nurse. Good luck with everything
