"Mature" graduates finding employment

Nurses Job Hunt

Published

Of all the nursing graduates you know who have found employment as nurses in hospitals the last few years, how many of them have been "mature" students? There are so many second career students in Nursing programs these days, but what are their chances of finding jobs after graduation compared to the younger set? Of each one who found employment within a reasonable amount of time (within a few months), what was their approx. age?

Is being more "mature" an advantage to finding employment? Or a disadvantage? Are hospitals hiring new nurses who are over 40? Thanks
