Finding your first job as a nurse can be a challenge. Candidates need to find a place where they feel
comfortable and get the support they need to go from a novice nurse to an experienced nurse. Career
Services believes that it is never too early to start doing your career research. The following are New
Nurse Programs from all across the country. So whether you live in the tri-state area, or return to your
home state, you can start the process of finding the employer that is right for you. Keep in mind that
there are application deadlines, so do your research early. Make sure that you meet with a Career
Counselor to review your job search materials (Resume/CV, Cover Letter, Essay) before you apply.
