Texas Nursing

Good Afternoon All,

I am applying to various places in Texas for a Nursing Job. I will be moving to the state to be closer to my grandmother that is getting up there in age. I just want to know how the job market is for new graduates. I just passed my boards and have been submitting a lot of applications down there. I understand that graduate nurses are finding it hard to land a job in big cities like Dallas and Houston, but my goal is the smaller areas for now. I have a lot of experience in trauma and ER and I just want to get some info on places that may be hiring now.

    Job opportunities for new grads are healthier in the smallish cities such as Abilene, Tyler, Marshall, Longview, Waco, Eagle Pass, Alpine, Wichita Falls, and Nacogdoches.

    ASN or BSN?

    New grad ASN is getting very hard in larger metro areas, BSN is not easy in metro area, but better chance than ASN.

    What part of Texas you looking at, Texas is a huge state.

    I have a BSN and I am also working on my master's in public health as well. I am looking in the Austin area thats were my grandmother leaves at this time. I am just filling out applications all over. I know that the job market for new graduates is getting harder and harder. I have seen a lot of opening once I have 6 months or more experience thought. I didn't have a perference where I moved just as long as I am in the state I can at least be closer than where I leave now which is Maryland
