Nurses Are Talking About: Jobs for New Grads
The Big Lie?
Without a doubt, the main source of frustration experienced by recently
graduated and licensed but still unemployed nurses is what could be called "
the big lie."In other words, the television commercials that encourage young
people to become nurses -- and then abandon them for months (or years)
without employment; and the educators who tell them that the associate's
degree is perfectly adequate to guarantee employment, that they will have
their pick of jobs when they graduate, and that there is plenty of time to
get a BSN later on. Who knows whether it is greed, ignorance, or wishful
thinking that underlies the fairy tales told to nursing students about their
future job prospects? Whatever the motivation, the disillusionment of our
new grads is palpable. The jobs they expected after all of their hard work
just haven't materialized, and some grads are getting pretty desperate.
Will Work for Experience
The strongest motivator for the working population is money, but for some
newly licensed registered nurses, getting valuable clinical experience seems
to be taking precedence over the paycheck. Without that experience, the
financial future of these nurses will remain precarious because they will be
unable to find jobs.
"I am willing to take a 50% pay cut or even work for free so I can get the
darned experience," said one frustrated new graduate who has been unable to
break out of the unending cycle of "no job without experience, and no
experience without a job."
She was not alone. Other readers wrote:
"I would be more than willing to work for a lower rate of pay or even for
free to get that experience. It is so frustrating. I am willing to work any
day, any shift."
"I offered to work for nothing for a short period and a reduced wage after
that in the hospital where I had my externship. They won't take me for free.
"
However, another Medscape reader cautioned these nurses against such a rash
decision:
"Work for free if you want, but that will only send a message that you will
work for minimum wage, a message hospital administrators, Republicans, and
Wall Street would love to hear."
Why have employers backed off from hiring new graduates? Although the
reasons may vary, we have to assume that the number-one reason is financial.
It is expensive to train a new graduate, so if only a few positions are
open, they are filled with experienced nurses. So perhaps the question
should be, do hospitals have an obligation to hire new graduates? Hospitals
depend on a pipeline of nurses who are ready to step into jobs when the
hospital needs them, to cope with peaks and valleys in census and acuity. If
hospitals refuse to hire new graduates in times of oversupply, the pipeline
will slow and the new graduates won't be there when they are needed.
A new grad reflected on the shortsightedness of hospitals that fill their
available positions primarily with experienced nurses:
"Why do hospitals think they are entitled to hire only experienced nurses?
No other industry expects to only get experienced workers. Other industries
grow their talent but I guess that is asking too much for healthcare in the
name of cost savings."
Without steady paychecks, student loans won't be repaid, and this could make
loans harder to get for prospective nursing students. "I have had my
license for a year today," complained one new graduate, "and have had a
whopping 3 interviews. Tell Wells Fargo when they want my student loan money
