Well, after going to Houston this weekend I feel pretty good about the whole thing (all your input helped too). Travel times, mileage are all manageable. But WOW! Texas Medical Center is huge, it is very intimidating! For now, I will concentrate on my upcoming clinicals/semester and who knows maybe I will have a huge post about how I got an offer from Texas Children's Hospital. (I think peds is my calling). Until then, I will have my nose buried in a book and my heart in clinicals.

Oh, thanks for all your input! Relocating is never easy. Tomorrow, my husband has a short meeting and then we are going to do some exploring. I mapped it out and will check mileage and neighborhoods. Hopefully, this will be a smooth transition when the time comes. Mom22- You mentioned TIRR, would that be part of the Tenet Healthcare system? :)

Hi, I will be relocating from Austin to Houston in 1 1/2 years due to my husbands' upcoming job transfer. This is great but that is when I will graduate and will need to find a job in Houston. I have heard that St.Luke's has a residency program for graduate nurses but according to their web site they recruit in the Spring and expect you to start work in June. Uh oh...I graduate in December (I thought that was good timing but now not so sure, does that mean they don't hire any graduates except in the Spring?). If anyone is a St.Luke's nurse and is somewhat familiar could you please offer any information to me. Does Memorial Hermann have a similar program? Then, how would you suggest I go about setting up interviews. Do I contact hospitals at the beginning of my last semester, the middle, or the end? So confused. I know this is far out in the future but I know it will come quickly and quite honestly after hearing my husband's news...I am pretty stressed out. Not only do I have clinicals to worry about, I have to plan a move which includes selling a house. Ugh. Any advice is greatly appreciated from any nurses, thank you in advance. KC
