Thanks deliverator. I will focus on getting my initial experience here in san Antonio TX and get my bsn for now. I contacted the recruiter and she stated that the new grad program is only for med-surg type units. I appreciate the help and reply.

Thanks ks1773. I figured experience would somewhat count. I'm originally from SoCal, but I'll just get RN experience here in San Antonio while I get my BSN then hopefully better my chances. I really want to be back in the LBC.

Hello all. I'm an enlisted Army reservist living in San Antonio Texas. I've been an LVN working in telemetry since 2009. I've also been working as a GS LVN at SAMMC for 2 years now. I will graduate this December with an assocciates degree in nursing (RN). There is a posting for employment for ER-Critical care RN in a VA hospital in Long Beach, CA. The posting states that proffesional nursing experience in critical care setting is preferred (not listed under requirements). My question is, with veterans preference and LVN experience, am I eligible to apply? Or am I excluded because upon graduation I will be considered a "new nurse" Any help or advice is appreaciated. Also, I'm not exclusive to ICU positions (although that would be my preference).
