Geez, $22/hr is terrible for a BSN. The cost of living is so much greater in Colorado than Ohio and I know I can get at least $22.75/hr in Cincinnati. How has the area changed since Marajuana legalization? I would imagine since it is a gateway drug there are more drug seekers in the area. Also one more question, should I wait to apply and travel out to Denver until I have passed my NCLEX or will managers/ HR be willing to meet with me in the time between graduating and becoming liscensed. Thanks for your help!

So I currently live in Cincinnati and I am looking at moving out to Denver when I graduate in May 2016 which I know is kinda far away. I was just curious about how new grads are doing and if they are able to find jobs in acute care. I would love to do Mom baby or L&D but I will do anything if it means I can move out to Denver. I just have to have a job! Some of the threads are worrying me but they are 5 years old at this point so I am hoping that the outlook is better now for new grads with a BSN. I have also worked as a PCA for two years on a general surgical floor. Let me know if you think I should stay in Cincy for my one year of experience or if you think I can find a job out in Denver as a new grad. Thanks!
