Nurses usually never have to look long for a job, but they may have to take a job that they didn't necessarily think they wanted or they might have to relocate.
Good luck Kimberly!!!

Very true. I don't mind taking anything I just need something now.

I know as a new grad I will start out on nights which is fine. I am going to look out of this valley and just put in applications all over southern california. I know I will probably have to move which is fine. I just want to make sure I get a solid foundation and the education I need to be a great nurse.
