Hello Ranik. Were you ever able to land the job at St. Francis. I am in the same boat as you. Working as a school nurse and desperately trying to take the leap to hospital nursing. I graduated in January of 2012, so I'm an even older new grad than yo...

The NYC DOHMH is hiring for school nurses and they do hire ADN nurses in the position of Junior Public Health Nurse. Check out the job postings on their site. Please do not get discouraged. I had a lot of doors closed in my face as well. Don't give u...

Thank you for your response!

Hi KLW96. I didn't go to this event, but I'm curious as to how you were able to gain access to this new grad only event? I check the NYP website daily, and haven't seen any new grad event postings in a very long time. Any insight would be appreciated...

I am having the same problem. I've tried everything to reduce the file size...it would be nice if anyone could offer some advice!

I spoke with Human Resources and they said they are no longer doing the fellowship and will be removing it from the site.

When you go to the site, it says you have to have a minimum of 2 years of experience.

Thank you for your response! I will look into it.

If you don't mind me asking, which hospital was this? Are you sure the only way you can register for school is at the orientation? Many schools offer several orientations, or allow you to register for courses online. I would've went to the interview ...

Unfortunately, no. They just sent a generic e-mail that I wasn't qualified, even though I have a BSN, graduated with honors, and have medical experience working in a hospital for 10 years in administrative support.

You were able to get into an agency as a new grad? Was it for homecare? If you don't mind me asking, which agency was it? I have applied to hundreds of jobs. Any info is definitely appreciated. Thank you.

Hey everyone...did NYHQ put up another event that you all attended? I check the career events page religiously and must have missed this...or did you all sign up for this event a while ago? I'm confused how everyone became aware of the open house. An...

I applied to MJHS and was told that I didn't qualify for the open house event even though I have a BSN, and have experience working in a hospital (non-RN position) for almost 10 years. I am a new grad. I'm curious as to why other new grads were offer...

Do you have 1-2 years of med/surg or telemetry experience? If you don't, you have to enter into the new grad internship program which requires that you submit: A copy of your most recent college transcript An essay about why you want to participate i...

Sorry to hear about your situation. The answer is no, that should not be a problem. For any schooling, training, etc. it is only necessary that you provide a mailing address. You could either provide the address to the shelter (they won't know its a ...

I'm interested to know how to apply as well. I don't see anything posted on the website.

I'm going to apply for this as well. Did you send an essay along with your application?

Sorry I'm so late responding to this. The subway late at night could be an issue, only because late at night there are not as many ppl riding it and there is a chance that some unsavory individuals can hang out in the station looking for trouble. Bei...

It is not the most ideal area in the Bronx, but if you are working day shift then I highly doubt you will run into problems. Shady characters may come out at night but it's not a place that I would feel like my life or safety is in danger while worki...

I'm from the Bronx so I can tell you that it depends on what the cross street is. There is a large part of east tremont that stretches from parkchester to throggs neck that is not bad at all. East tremont is one of the main avenues (lots of ppl, shop...

I check Westchester Medical religiously and they haven't had any new job postings (aside from a couple requesting experience) in months! The market is tough for new grads

Wow congrats on getting a job at an NYC hospital! I'm another person who has been struggling to land a job as a RN. I originally had an ADN, and recently graduated with my BSN. I am hoping to find something soon. You give me hope! On another note, I...

Hi everyone. I am trying to apply online to positions at HHC hospitals. I wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions on who to address the cover letter to? The website only allows you to attach one cover letter even though you are applying to diffe...

I'm going to be very honest with you. Nursing is extremely hard, so as someone else mentioned, you must evaluate why you got that C- in A&P (are you studying enough, do you understand the concepts, are you able to devote enough time to your studi...

You are definitely not the only one. I graduated 2 years ago and have been unable to gain unemployment. I started out as a ADN, then basically gave up on my job search until I finished my BSN. I just graduated with my BSN, so now I'm hoping my chance...
