Cindy Thomas is the Associate Fellow at Mesa State College. She already earned her Doctor's Degree in Nursing. She understands the concern of newly grads who need job and the companies which strive to decrease its costs. Hospitals and clinics find it knotty to defend the outcome of hiring new graduates with at least 6 months of Related Learning Experience. Newly grads can bring new ideas and vigor; they stick around for years though they construct a foundation. Hiring experienced nurse only needs a part of that training. On the contrary, nurses who return to the field because they want to earn more to prepare for their retirement, or want to surpass the recession, or want to off-set the loss of job because of getting married can simply jump back out. Thomas said, As soon as the economy gets improved, those nurses are going to depart again. It’s a short-sighted tactic. Thomas had asked students about their career after graduation. Recently, she conducted counselling for a nursing student who is worried about being jobless, because he needs to pay a loan of $50,000. A decade ago, Thomas started teaching at Mess State where the nursing program had accommodated 20 students per term. Currently, this population was doubled. Beth Bricker, Chief Nursing Officer at Community Hospital said, I absolutely noticed a trend of experienced nurses who go back to the workforce and they persist to practice their expertise to retain their positions in a lengthy time. Recently, she employed 3-4 nursing graduates who will begin working when they pass the board exam. Before the graduation, a recruiter named Mark Prettyman will chat with several nursing students. Prettyman has contract with UMS Health, California with 700 available nursing jobs that are located in metro areas. By 2010, million of nurses will be hired in the nation. Seventy five percent of job post is nursing positions. Nurses who undergo specialized trainings are most wanted. If the field of your expertise is bone-marrow transplant, I could find a job like that, Prettyman said. Registered Nurses in huge cities of U.S. can earn $50,000-$200,000. Graduating students of Nursing may search for job somewhere else, but they should not forget to come back for their cup-of-tea. |
