To Anyone Employed by UMC: This is a link that I found on indeed.com for a NEW GRAD ER position, but is for current UMC employees only: http://www.healthcarejobsite.com/job.asp?id=27865640&aff=925A0F9A-7C85-4AAD-A3D2-5E5C81892E2F&utm_source=Indeed&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=Indeed

Spongebob6286, I appreciate all of your verbal support during this time. It is so easy to lose hope in this occupationally destitute environment. I am happy to say that I did receive an offer from St. Rose today for their Versant program (which I ecstatically accepted!!). There truly is a reason to maintain optimism in an otherwise pessimistic economy!

I has been quite some time since I have posted. I am so elated to say that I just received a call for an interview with St. Rose for a New Grad position that was posted and I applied for in May !! Just when I didn't think that there were any jobs available in this city, here is one.... I have been looking since June of last year. I so thrilled! Has anyone else received any calls?

I agree with the previous authors comments, but in addition, if you have the right nursing residency/internship you can do anything. This is especially true of the programs that last 6 months - 1 year.

I agree that nursing is a great field to get into. I just completed a fast track nursing program BSN and have two children 6 and 16. I think that it is a great investment in yourself.

Naperville is has a great community and schools as well.

I totally understand. I graduated in May, passed boards, and have been job hunting ever since.

From speaking to various recruiters, there are an abundance of positions. These are earmarked for experienced nurses only. Does anyone have insight on New Grad positions?

Do Las Vegas hospitals have critical care nursing interships for new grads? I am interested in Cardiac CU or ICU.

This is terrible. I have tried to find out when they post for the new grad positions, because I have found that if the position does not specifically state that it is for a new grad then I need not apply. I have received declination letter after declination letter, and I still do not understand. I am a qualified candidate, and I know that I am not by myself. What gives?

Graduated a BSN program in May 2, 2009, passed boards July 10, 2009, and still job hunting in Las Vegas, Nevada.

I agree that I have heard that Columbus State has an excellent program.

thanks AdamLV, again, nice to know that we are not alone. When I know something, I will be sure to drop a line. One thing that I know for sure is that Renown Hospital in Reno definitely has openings for new grads. Good Luck!
