Suggestions for getting my foot in the door for OR??

I've been a nurse for almost 8 years. I have some limited OR experience when I worked L&D, but feel like it is so difficult to get into this speciality. Any suggestions from those of you who have transitioned into OR from another area?

Argo-I'm with Methodist. I'm so excited! I used to work in L&D and circulate the c/s--so I have a good feel of the environment. I'm a quick study--but have also heard it'll be a year before I feel confident. 😄
