Struggling to find an RN position in Sacramento
I’ve been searching for an RN role in Sacramento for months since relocating. I hold a BSN, a CA RN license, ACLS, and BLS certifications, along with nearly a decade of nursing experience (the most recent 3 years in a med-surg floor).
I’ve applied to over a hundred positions for the past months within a 50-mile radius of Sacramento, focusing on med/surg, telemetry, or any area where my skills fit. I’ve had an interview at UCD—where I was rejected. Applications to Kaiser, Sutter also led to auto rejections after weeks of waiting.
I’ve been told my interview skills are solid, but the lack of progress has been incredibly disheartening. I’m determined to keep looking but would appreciate any advice or insights from those who’ve faced similar challenges.
