Hello All and thank you in advance for any advice that is given.
I have a prior bachelors degree, and have been a bartender for 13 years. I received my NYS license (BSN) in August. I started looking for an RN job in October and still have no luck. Ive heard of two grades of hospitals. Im wondering if there are smaller lesser known hospitals that I haven't applied to. I may have better luck finding a job in a small facility. Or does anyone know of Plastic surgeons or surgery centers that tend to hire new grads???
I heard the RN job search would be difficult, but I would think there might be areas I haven't tapped into. I am drowning in student loan debt
When did you graduate? What have you been doing so far?
Yes, I applied like nuts. Getting rejected every time. I had an interview in February , which I interviewed with 5 people in one day. I didnt get that job. Eventually I had to get a job in home care. Once I had a month experience, I went to all my profiles with the hospitals and updated my resume with the actual RN experience. Then out of nowhere I received a call from talent acquisition for NYP. Had one interview with the manager and the next week I was informed of the "on boarding" process.
