Seeking job hunt advice; new grad FNP

Published

I am a new grad FNP in Ohio. I know RN experience doesn't really count but I have a year of SNF experience, 5 years in an office setting (ob/GYN, peds, adults/FP/IM for 3 and about 2 in an IM/FP/infectious disease, wound care setting) 1 year med surg, and a few months in a cardiac step down unit.

Any advice on marketing myself to get a good position and find a job? I need income and dread the thought of going back to floor nursing after I did all this but the NP job market isn't great here. Moving isn't an easy thing we can just up and do.

Thanks for any help.

Some varied hours but good benefits package and higher pay than I asked for.
