What looks great on your resume when you are applying for a job

Published

I am in nursing school trying to get my associates and will soon be looking a job soon. I know the market is now hiring nurses with BSN and although I plan to get my BSN I would also like to start working on my experience as a nurse. What credentials other than a BSN will make my resume look more desirable when I start looking for a job? What certification do you suggest me trying to obtain as well? Will my GPA have any significance in this process?

Work in the medical field. I worked as a HH aide for 3 years while going to school. I was told longevity at a position is valued (they don't want job hoppers).

I was at my last job for 5 and a half years. I feel a little better now. I am always saying to myself, they are going to look at my inexperience in nursing that I never actually thought about how the other areas I worked and how they may apply.
