Here is an idea...call up UCLA and speak to a nurse recruiter. They will let you know what to do. I am a new grad myself with a Fla state license. They will send you an application. The next step will be to set up an interview. You can interview ...

I was thinking about UCLA and Cedars ...I am also looking for a place to live...so i have a lot to do... I started my application...I will mail it out on Monday. Do you live in Cali?

No,I havent as yet..I recently got the application so I am going to start the paperwork.

Hello. I too am relocating to California soon. The starting salary I guess depends n where youre going...however I believe the salary starts at 26.00. Try my salary.com. That will give you a ballpark figure.

Thank You guys for the input. I recently looking at apartments...Pretty expensive apartments compared to where I live right now, however that wont hinder me. I am on my way to wonderful L.A!!!!
