Hi all,
I am a new grad and have registered to take the NCLEX and become licensed in PA. I have had a change of heart recently and want to practice in NYC. However, the application process in NYC is long and I don't want to risk my chances of getting a job in PA where it is less competitive.
I think it will seem odd to NYC employers that a new grad who is not yet licensed is planning to get registered in PA and *then* get her license endorsed in NY. If I write that I am applying directly to NY, will my endorsed license later on show that it is endorsed? Or will it look the same as a license that someone obtained by directly applying to NY? I just want to play it safe and maximize my chances in both places... thanks.
