    HippyRN replied to dmarie (GA)'s topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm moving from the DC area and am a new grad. I've had several job interviews and a couple job offers so I haven't found it too difficult to find an RN job in Atlanta. It may not be your perfect job...

    HippyRN replied to cassbuth's topic in Georgia Nursing
