Hello,

So for some background info, I graduated May '14, got my license June '14, was hired for medsurg/tele April '15 and was fired July '15 before my orientation ended. They sited that they didn't think I was ready to be alone on the floor and my orientation time was up. I started working SCI sub-acute rehab Feb '16 and I currently still work there.

I am looking to get in to Labor and Delivery. A coworker's niece works on l&d and handed my resume to her manager and the manager said she would like to see med-surg experience. So now I am looking for med-surg opportunities. Do you think I should keep my very first job on the resume? My thoughts are it will only add more questions to my hire-ability. I've been submitting my resume for months to multiple hospitals for L&D and haven't been invited for an interview. I've been applying to med-surg positions about a month and no calls.

Thanks all in advance!
