I am a current full time school nurse after graduating in late 2021 but not being officially licensed until earlier this year due to personal health matters.
I am at a loss for words on how to improve or maximize my chances of gaining acceptance into a formal nurse residency program or inpatient position.
I graduated from a direct-entry MSN program and falsely believed that would give me an advantage but the applicant pool is insanely competitive. How might I be able to stand out given my unique circumstances? It appears without bedside nursing experience, you're not at all desirable to most employers. ?
Thank you so much in advance for any feedback! ?
