Call / email the nurse recruiters, let them know you are applying and see if they would be able to answer a few questions about the hospital. Get your name in their radar. Once they know you exsist, and are dedicated to the proccess, things will speed up. Also its a very very long proccess, even if they want you it can take months to get a job offer.

new york state is really good about hiring new grads! pretty much my entire class has been hired in hospital! i live in the Ithaca area, however Elmira, Cortland, Syracuse, Rochester area hospitals all hired new grads as well. good luck!

Ok, so I was reading this post as a soon to be new grad who is struggling with time management and I just have to say, why oh why would you want to move to the states! Canada's fine, however the US is not fully a place I would come to willingly, at least not from the UK. I mean really, health care and social policy are awful. Anyway just had to point this out. Go to Canada stay away from the states. If i could afford to leave I would! Gabe

I am a second year nursing student and I am really drawn to the OR. I am also very interested in completing a CRNA program. My question is would OR experience count as critical care experience?
