I just got over 2 big hurdles in life...nursing school and NCLEX...now for the next big hurdle...FINDING A JOB IN A JOBLESS WORLD FOR A NEW GRAD NURSE...
Does anyone have any suggestions as far as where to look for a job, if volunteering is worth doing (already have volunteer experience prior to nursing school), if I should try to get as many extra certifications as possible (PALS,ACLS etc.)?
Please help... any suggestions are welcomed...THANKS!
=)

Rene I’m in the same position you are in!! Its kind of crazy….. especially when we’ve been told there’s a shortage of nurses! I was just thinking about certifications as well. Im bilingual n thought it would be easier to get a job. But that thought is long gone nowadays… I live in DE.. and the market here is dry as the Sahara! All positions require 2-3 years of experience; how can I get experience when I cant get hired?!
Best of luck to You…
