Needing advice! I graduated last summer from a direct entry program and passed my FNP boards last august and moved from my home state of MA to TN. Getting anyone to consider a new grad (from a direct-entry program) in a new state was TOUGH, especial...

Nomad crna, I agree and completely see this being the case. My concern is purely that this job will end soon, I am having so much difficulty finding an NP job due to my limited RN experience and having
Angie16451, Thank you for your response! That was my initial concern about telling any potential employers and then my fears shifted to "OMG what am I going to do if no one will hire me as an NP?" It's been extremely disheartening trying to find empl...
I should have added I do have RN experience, thought limited, I worked as an RN in a primary care office while studying for my NP boards. Hoping an NP job is willing to take me on :)

Hi NurseCJT, I know this post is a few years old now but I am in a similar situation and am wondering if you had any luck actually calling the BON? I recently relocated to TN from the northeast and finding a job as a new grad down here has been TOUGH...
Hi Guys! New to this thread. I see a lot of RN's heard back about the scholarship, just wondering if NP's heard back. I'm in a direct-entry NP program at MGH in Boston. Thanks and good luck!

KoKo- I'm in Mass. I emailed them and asked when I could expect to hear back and they responded that I've been admitted. Still nothing in the mail. Good luck!
