The last few minutes of the video are so true. I called the hospital operator and asked to be transferred to the NICU, then from there I asked to speak directly to the unit hiring manager. My application was pulled before the end of the day and I ended up getting the job!
Yes! I’m telling you it works!
Do you suggest new grads do this for residency programs as well?
@@arionnejohnson1185 yes, it doesn’t hurt. The worst they can say is “a recruiter will contact you”
I’m doing a nurse externship as a nursing student and will hopefully be hired once I graduate into the MICU! It’s looking good so far! Thanks for the tips! All ICU positions are so hard to get into with no experience or as a new grad. 😩😭
I noticed in a recent video that you are using a different stethoscope, did you have to get a different one for the NICU?
The NICU supplies each baby with stereoscope, so you don't need one for day to day work in the NICU
I was just hired as a NICU nurse & i graduate in 2 days with my ADN! One of the hospitals I applied for had a job fair, I passed all the other department managers and went straight to what I wanted. I sold myself and it worked. She took down my name in her personal notes and said she was going to pull my resume. She did just that and we did a phone interview and made an offer! She said my cover letter stood out because all the others were so standard & boring. I made mine specific and it showed how much passion I have about working in the nicu. Plus I knew exactly what I wanted at that job fair. I wasn’t just looking through all the departments for any job. I talked to her and I left. I had the attitude of if it’s not nicu I don’t want it.
What did you include in your resume to make yourself stand out? Any tips
Do you think you could do a video on your resume? I never know where to put things to make myself stand out
Second this!!
I third this 🧡
Fourth this!
5th this lol
Yesss I need an example
I have my ADN and I just graduated...got a job in the NICU without any experience 😊🩺
That's awesome how did you get the job and any advice on it?
Will be nice if you could let us know how you got it. :)
Everyone wants to work in the NICU 😭😭
seriously lol
I do because my baby was in the NICU. 💜
I do since I have back problems lol.
Just had my interview for the NICU.. fingers crossed I get the job!!!
Did you get it?
I was watching this video and while watching it got a callback for a nicu position ♥️🙏🏽
I literally volunteered at a children’s hospital for a year & when i was finally eligible to become a “baby hugger” what we call the volunteers in the NICU, Covid happened... I was so pissed cuz that was the whole reason I became a volunteer 😂 &I’ll be a nurse before they open the volunteer program back up, just my luck.
I’m a new grad NICU nurse and I was an extern on an antepartum floor for a year then I reached out to the NICU manager asking for a change in position to extern on their unit. I was really persistent and finally interviewed with her and she hired me on the spot!
congratulations bella!!!
Best notification to get after a day of nursing school seminars 😁😁😁
I agree. I feel like schools don't even tell / teach the real deal
I remember those days 🥲
@@TheNurseNook I appreciate you😩🙏🏾💙
I graduate in May and I just accepted a position in the NICU. I am so excited!! Is there any tips, websites, or books that you recommend for NICU knowledge?
My son has Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. I love watching you and I’m currently going back to college to be a nurse! 🤍
Love this!! I am doing my practicum in NICU right now and starting a new grad position in the NICU in July 💘 it is the best! Definitely recommend trying to get a practicum in the NICU as well as volunteering. I work as a unit secretary in the NICU I will be starting at as a nurse and that is such a great way to get your foot in the door!!
I got a interview in 2 hours for a Nicu residency. Been trying to get into Nicu for the past 4 months ( graduated in December). It’s competitive!
HOW DID IT GO?
Right now I’m in school for my cna and then I’m going to start at the hospital and then I’m going to go to nursing school for my rn but I’m going for my MSN and also go to nurse practitioner school. My dream job is to be a NNP.
Good luck! You got this!
This is exciting! I've been following your journey since YOU were in school. Now I'm following you and will be joining the NICU team shortly (after my term in med-surge). I'm excited that I'll get to watch your tips and tricks for my new career path!
I’m glad to hear you are liking the NICU! I was able to get a position in a level 3 NICU before I graduated from college due to connections and experience I gained from my last clinical! I’ve been working on the unit for 5 months now and I love working with the babies!
Hi! May you expand more on college connections?
I can definitely relate to this video! Been a struggle getting into the ICU in my hometown without experience :(
i literally just came on here to comment and say that you are an absolute soldier! it takes a certain kind of strength to emotionally stomach a level 3 NICU. i can't imagine a level 4. i think i may be able to do 2 but probably not more. the world needs people like you ❤️
Amour. yesterday 29. Your husband's were singles. We were just met. You wasn't tell me oui. You are mine okay!🎉❤
If you make it so complicate Nicole. Other nurses will take over your job employer ok!👂leave NICU to nurse midwive!
You decide for me Nicole. I don't like to decide on staffs our story wasn't created. You know better on that story then me dear. Go a head if you still serious. Is you talking about asset? Ok,we can't promise nothing to you now like assets. Cuz you aunt worked only for her pather= child= papa Icon. Not even for us ever here too. Will you do the same for us not be able to take care of you. Like she done to herselve? Let's us know before we move forward hanny?👂👂🤔. 😮
Hey girl! What college did you go to? To become a Nurse?
Get my resume from nurse black midwife beebee. So, she'll hire you for my position. She's the office supervisor now Nicole!👂
I want to be apart of nicu like NICU nurse ,NICU tech ,NICU cna or something like that like can you tell me what each position does like go into deep explantion
I just got my capstone placement in the NICU! Came straight back to this video haha. Love your channel! I was initially team L&D but I’m excited for this challenge, I think L&D might after all be a bit routine for me.
You look great and amazing mon amour.. We aren't here to teach you only. But, learn alot about you too!👂😇💋
I graduate in May and have applied to so many LND jobs and it’s starting to feel impossible to get hired😩. I’m trying so hard not to give up hope because it’s literally been my dream for years, but wooo it’s getting tough
Continue trying and believe me u gonna find the best LND position ever💓
@@saraaa922 thank you! Not giving up til I have the position of my dreams
I had my pen and paper ready for this video! This is my passion 💗 thank you so much for all of this information. You’re a gem!
Wr are on it Nicole night shift with our little enfent mon amour@!♥️💋👂
your lips look so pretty and smooth, drop a vid girl...Mine look similar, I use vaseline, ESPECIALLY at night:)))
I want to do peds but I’m not sure what peds I want to do. Unfortunately we didn’t get to pick where we precept at cause they wanted us to be well rounded 😒
I've never considered the NICU but you make me want to give it a try!! I'm three months into a new job in endoscopy and really enjoying it...but I'm always interested in learning more about different areas of nursing. Thank you!
Today I was floated to the IcU...
I would love to do cath lab/OR/cardiac icu. Only in first semester but hopefully when the practicum course starts I can get placed there!!
I....AM.....EARLY!!!!!
So many amazing tips and advice 👍🏾👏🏾🤗 and great video as always
Is practicum or capstone only for BSN? I'm about to start my ADN in August and I'm not sure if we'll get that opportunity or just clinicals in each area.
These are some really good tips and they would help to get a new or inexperienced nurse get into any area they wish to work in.
Can you make a video on what’s it like working in the NICU? 😊 thanks for the tips
Congratulations on getting to where you wanted to be. I'm considering moving to Houston. Can you tell me what areas I should check out on my visit? Safe housing areas for young professionals, restaurants, lounges, etc.
Can you take certification classes as soon as you pass NCLEX?
Yes..you can take NRP. or STABLE even before you pass NCLEX
@@1nurseKathi omg thank you so much!
@@1nurseKathi where do you suggest I find this class, and one that is AHA accredited?
Thank you for this video! I have my interview this week. Hoping to get the position.
I really love your videos they’re so helpful! I’m a senior in high school and I was wondering if you could discuss what you did after high school.
Can you share what website you did the courses at?
Thank you for sharing! This was such helpful advice. Shoutout to all the NICU nurses out there! You guys are the best!
I'm not a nurse, but I'm an ultrasound technician and definitely could relate to this video.
Great vid!!
Thank you for this advice it’s so helpful! 💗
My healthcare experience is primarily in adults and the elderly population. Is it appropriate to list my experience as a kids club attendant, mother’s helper, and nanny? My resume at the moment consists of my education, healthcare experience, and certifications/skills. I wasn’t sure if those previous jobs would make a difference really :(
Maybe consolidate all kid-related, non-nurse experience together to demonstrate your life long love of babies
i want to work in the NICU so bad after i get out of school in july lol
This is spot on advice!!
Good luck!!
If you have a ADN are you still able to work in the NICU? Thank you I love your videos!!!
It’s possible! I have a coworker that has her ADN and she’s a new grad NICU nurse.
You look Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope to be in the NICU one day :3 I love babies, I know its not all sunshine and rainbows but I think I could do it. This video was really helpful.
Thank you so much for this informative video! It helped me land my first level IV NICU job (prior work exp. was med-surg/tele, oncology). :)
Im thinking about becoming a NICU nurse and your videos are so informative I love them so much 🥰🥰
Thank you !!:)
I love baby’s and my mom Is a babysitter which might be why I love kids/ baby’s but I want to be a travel nicu Nurse!
I love this I have no hospital experience looking to get into mom baby after I get my experience do you still work nights?
I happened to meet a couple of ob nurses and nurse practitioner and they’ve told me to start with do Er for a year. Learn how the to think quickly
Hi I was wondering if you could take the stable course as a CNA or do you have to be an RN?
Hi!!
Can you plz plz recommend nursing shoes that u think its great for those long hour shifts???
Thanks for this video and I love your hair. 👽♥️♥️♥️
Can I ask what University did you to?
Being a neonatal nurse is my dream jobbb my names Alexis toooo yeaaa were bestfriendsss💕💕
Girl I need advice I'm a new grad LVN and I'm working in a fascility, I don't like it and would like some advice on what should I do or how do I get a better job .. please help!!
I have an interview with pediatrics after hours any advice ?
STARTED WORKING IN NICU AIIMS 👍 SO HAPPY
Hi, Alexis my name is Dess I’m on. My journey to become a Clinical medical assistant, I’m excited to join the medical field I know it’s not going to be an easy task but I’m up for the challenge and I’m going to try my best. Wishing you all success and happiness with your new job position as as NICU nurse, such as critical job but a great opportunity and people learn so much. #Blessed 🤍
Ps. I know it’s not a nursing job such as lpn and Rn but I’m taking small steps starting off little by little to soon become a Lpn
Can you make a video on how to make a resume once you have experience as a nurse !?
Hi, can a person have an associate degree work as a Labor & Delivery RN?
Yes, ADN nurse's can be hired, just a bit more competitive in larger academic centers, so try applying to community hospitals too
Def needed this. My dream is to be a NICU nurse & everyone always shuts it down by saying “yeah, it’s hard to get it & they def won’t take new grads” 🥺 so thank you for this!
🥰💕💞💕💞💕💞
🥳🥳🥳❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am debating on going back to nursing school. This would be my final attempt. I’m nervous and I haven’t made a move yet. I’ve been out of school for a year and 3 months now. :/
Girl go back nothing is impossible, I left my school the first time and I was 3 months away from graduation , right away I looked for a better school and I even had to restart all over but I didn't give up, I'm now a LVN .. GOOD LUCK GURL, YOU COULD DO IT!!
Absolutely go for it!! I had been in school for three years, had to take two off to be a caretaker for a family member, went back and finished my BSN at a different school, and now I'm a pediatric oncology nurse!! I thought it would be impossible, but I'm so thankful that I never gave up. It sounds so cliche, but you truly can do anything you put your mind to, if the will and want to put in the work are all there. Wishing you the best of luck with your journey!
@@marisa768 thank you for the encouragement! Very much appreciated!!it’s so good to hear other people’s stories - so proud of you!
@@Meli-girl7 thank you for the encouragement!!
@JadaJay yay! Also thank you for the encouragement!
Is being a male nurse "weird"?
NO
100%..No
Not at all! There's always room for anyone willing to take the challenge and perfecting their craft!
Where did you purchase your NRP certification? Did you also have to do an in person course? I'm really trying to get my NRP certification before applying to my dream NICU position but am having a hard time finding where to get it done! I really want this job 🤍
