Any tips for a new grad nurse who has been searching for a job for the past 3 months? I'm not sure if I am looking in the right places or simply because I am a new grad with zero experience.

I obtained my RN license in April 2023. I did schooling during COVID, so I have no clinical experience. I have a desk job as a nurse doing OB/Gyn at a doctor's office. What IL hospital will want to hire a nurse with NO experience at all?

How long in your experience did it take to get a Nursing job/start? I was previously at the same job for 8 yrs and left due to having a baby, but now I have childcare and I’m ready to get back into work! It’s been a long time since an interview! Lol

How to get hired with disciplinary action from 15 years ago? It was alleged & told by signing a consent order would speed up the process in getting unencumbered license status. Big lie! You waive all rights to a hearing by signing a consent order.
