Does anyone in MA have any ideas of places to work, outpatient, for a new grad? I've searched the Globe, Monster, Hotjobs but can't really come up with anything besides inpatient hospital. Thanks

Hi, Stick with the job searching. I had to take a seasonal retail job in 2005. However, January 2006 rolled around and I did find an outpatient nursing position north of Boston. I limited myself by searching Boston and the burbs; the job I got was g...

Ditto the above posting. Thanks

I had the same problem, so I feel you pain. I graduated last June and was under the impression you had to pass the nclex to get a job. My school screwed up the apaperwork so I had to wait until Aug. By the time I received my scores it was Sept. I loo...

Please post where you end up working in CO. I am a native who is living in Boston. However, plan to move back to CO within the next few years. I had a rough time getting a job out here, everyone tells me that CO is full of jobs. I grew up in Southern...

I am curious as to where new grads are getting jobs in MA? I am having a tough time finding a postion as a new grad with no experience. I have sent in a number of resumes but no replies. I hit HR at a few places but no luck. My RN program lacked care...

I did my maternity rotation at Brigham and Women's. It is an awesome place for L&D. However, it is in the city. They have reduced rate parking so it is possible to commute in with a car.

I heard that Magnet hospitals only hire BSNs. Anyone have info regrading this.

Brigham's is paying new grads $26/hr. But there is a catch they are a unionized hospital so you have monthly dues.

I am fairly sure that Disney uses Baldridge training. My mom is in charge of it for a school district. Ford, Ritz-Carlton also use it. Baldrige focuses on all aspects of a operation to achieve quality improvement/control

It's the end of October and I have neither an oupatient or inpatiet job. The market around her caters to January and June hiring. It is extremely frustrating. I have sent out a bunch of resumes and visit quite a few places but no luck. I thought this...

It is the end of October and I still do not have a nursing postions. The majoirty of the postions were filled in June and they will be hiring again in Jan. I can't tell you how many resumes I have sent out. It is extremely frustrating to read the pa...

Nursing fair did not go to well. Handed out quite a few resumes. Nobody seems to be hiring new grads. Most told me they did the hiring in June.

I am going Monday to a nursing fair. I have not attended on before, so not too sure what to expect.

I passed my NCLEX in Aug. I started looking in July. I've really started seriously last month. I have no other healthcare experience besides clinicals. I have some resturant work, volunteering, and tutuoring that apply to nursing so I do put them on....

I am in the same boat. The advice offered above is valid. I thought it would be easier and the internet would be the way in the door. Not true. You have to pound the pavement and basically annoy HR to get responses. https://allnurses.com/forums/show...

I scoped out their website. I emailed the HR person about the new grad program, the website did not give much info. It is a 20 mile drive from my house, I was trying to avoid a long commute but if worse comes to worse I might have to have to.

It makes sense what you are saying. But I enjoyed my experience in outpatient far more than the hospital setting. I agree with leo_bsn I would dread going to work everyday if I got stuck with a icu, neuro, med-surg job.

I feel like all the nursing jobs in the area require experience. I searched the net for a new grad postion but no luck. I am thinking that I am going to have to visit human resources at some hospitals. I do not want a med surg, icu, neuro, long-term ...

I'm in the same situation at annlet. I too have an BA and Assoc. I live in Massachusetts and would like to start my nursing career off in school nursing. I took two semesters of community health. Do you think that would count for the public health? I...

Canon is a tourist town. It is ok not very exciting. The Colorado super max prison is located outside of Canon as well as a womens prision so lots of locals are employed there. I personally would rather live in Pueblo West and commute into Canon than...

Sorry I did not get you PMs

I did my psych rotation last spring. I spent three weeks on an adolscent unit then the other three on a substance abuse ward. The adolescent unit broke my heart. The substance unit scared me. Some of the clients had lengthy backgrounds and at times h...
