When to apply

Hello Everyone!

I am a nursing student in an LPN program in Louisville, KY. I am graduating in about 3 1/2 months and trying to figure out when I can start applying for nursing jobs. I have read about others having jobs set up to start as soon as they graduate, and that is what I want.

I am going directly into an LPN to RN bridge program in July, if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

It shows your commitment if you apply and offer to work in the role of a nursing assistant until you pass your boards. I think this investment is valuable time spent for you, as well, for all the obvious reasons. Just be clear about your role change when it occurs, that is the only risk. But, if you handle it right, you will earn respect and will learn the culture and expectations before having to take it all in as a nurse. Good luck!

Thank you! I have reached out to a few places, but because I am not a certified nurse aide, they will not hire me for that role. My school does not require us to be certified.
