Hi there, I recently started a program in San Diego to obtain my Associates of Nursing Degree, which will make me an RN, but with all these schools offering Bachelor of Science Nursing programs, I'm worried that I will have trouble getting hired after graduation. Part of the reason I picked this program is that there was no waiting list, and as I was 27 when I finally got up the gumption to go back to school, I didn't want to wait 2-5 more years. Is anyone out there a recent graduate of an ADN that got hired (or is having trouble)? Maybe you just know the hiring practices of your place of employment and can tell me yes, they hire ADN or no, only BSN. I have a lot of previous medical experience including working for one of the major health care coorporations here in SD (no names ) so I am hoping if I continue to work for them, plus my experience, my degree will just be a bonus. Hope I'm not getting my hopes up and really thats not the truth. I would appreciate any input you could give me. Thanks!
