I would not be discouraged!! This is my 4th time applying to Sharp and the 1st time I've even gotten an interview - I currently have 6 months RN experience at an LTAC, but I have been applying to all the SD new grad programs since last year. It's just very competitive. I graduated in May 2023, have my BLS, ACLS, and was an OR tech in nursing school. No other certifications. but currently working as an RN at an LTAC I think is the only reason I even got an interview this time. Keep your head up!
