Sorry for my question, i hate to ask this, but i need to know.

The easy answer to your question is in the names of the positions themselves. A staff RN is on the front lines of a unit handling patient care and a charge nurse is "in charge" maintaining an overview and guiding/organizing the work that gets done each day.

As someone without any experience you will probably want to apply for the staff position unless you have a strong backround in leadership/organizational roles.

Good luck with your job search!

Thanks for that response.

Be prepared to explain why you never worked, too. I think you probably would find a job more quickly if you took a refresher course -- I am sure all your skills are very, very rusty. Agreed that you are going to need to start at the bottom (in a staff role) and get some experience.

Staff Nurse-experienced nurse or not

Charge nurse-experienced nurse (prefer 1+ years of recent experience)

Thanks for your comment.

I agree with you,my skills must be very rusty this time.But I am confident with the refresher course, I can easily gain momentum as I am the kind that is very serious in learning.

The staff position I saw in our hospital only asked for 4 months experience, I hope I would qualify.

Before getting my RN,I was an experienced nursing aide in my country which is a 2 year course.I also have a business degree and licensed, so maybe all these will be reflected in my resume.I understand that what is also relevant is the present experience after being an RN, so I will work on attending this refresher course.

Thanks for those who replied.I am still in cloud nine of passing my RN.but come now the reality of not having an experience.
