I am still a nursing student and have about a year left of my studies to get my BSN degree. I live in Hawaii but am looking to move to California to start my career (particularly San Francisco area). I wanted to find out when would be the best time to start looking into jobs and applying for them if I were to graduate in the Winter session, take the NCLEX (and hopefully pass the first time!), and then move out. I was mostly interested in the RN new graduate programs that they have at certain hospitals there. Should I begin inquiring now?
