*Hey guys! Just wondering if any of you new grads/rns trying to break into a new specialty who have been interviewing for the June 2012 Parkland Residency have heard any news? I know there is a zillion applicants interviewing and I wanna see if anyone has heard anything...also if my dream comes true and I'm selected to make some new friends as I am new to texas and have had 2 interviews for the Residency thus far and would love to connect with my fellow nurses here! I have interviewed for 2 different spots and I know they said it would take a couple weeks or possibly till April to hear anything..I am on pins and needles! Lets keep eachother posted :)! Good luck to everyone!

Hey there..I am a new grad who just moved here from Orlando and got licensed this month..I am super discouraged with the job market here because I thought there was going to be an influx of nurse positions I would qualify for..I moved here with my fiance and don't really know anyone or how the hospital systems work..I applied to all of Parkland's internships for Jan right around when I graduated (because all the other gn programs accepted apps in oct when I didn't even know we were moving ;/) and never heard anything from Parkland..now I've missed the boat for Feb internships and most hospitals wont hire w/out experience..and according to all the blogs I have been reading here it seems hopeless for new grads if you dont filter into an internship..I applied to Baylor's June internships and if I hear anything I'll post on here..maybe we could keep each other posted! Seeing that your from this area..do you know of anywhere at all that hires new grads outside an internship? Because I hear the internships are super competitive too..and whats the deal with Parkland? I didnt even get a rejection letter..I have applied now for over 100+ positions with no luck and one call back to tell me no internship this time around I can't wait till summer to work..I just moved across the country I have bills lol!
