  1. I am an RN at Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. I have worked on an adult ICU step down unit for almost 3 years now. I am looking to move to Minneapolis area soon & would love to ideally work in a NICU but would be willing to do postpartum or something of that sort first to get my foot in the door. I applied to two NICU positions at UMN Fairview in Minneapolis because they both said they just require at least a year of RN experience & not necessarily NICU experience. I also talked with a girl who works at the level 4 NICU there & she said they do hire nurses without prior NICU experience. Both NICU jobs I applied for did not select me nor interview or reach out to me at all. I also applied to a postpartum position & have not heard back. I am open to working at any hospital in the cities (HCMC, any Fairview, Abbott, Regions, etc) but I would really prefer NICU or postpartum. Does any one have any tips at all? It seems like some jobs require all this prior experience in those areas & I have only worked with adults. I'm not sure if it's something wrong with my resume or if they ideally do want someone with previous NICU/postpartum experience. The frustrating thing is I continue to see job postings for that specific NICU, so I am assuming they are hiring. The adult ICU step down unit I currently work on has given me great experience & I am able to deal with a fast paced & intense environment & very sick patients. I also did NICU & postpartum clinicals in nursing school & know I would love to work in those areas.
