Landing your first nursing job sounds straightforward after graduation—but for many new grads, the reality is far more difficult. In this episode of Nursing Uncharted, host Ann [BG1][CD2]sits down with Stella Leiken, a recent MSN graduate from the University of San Diego's Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN), to talk honestly about what it's really like to enter the nursing workforce for the first time. Stella shares her journey from a psychology degree at UC Santa Barbara to an accelerated MEPN program, completing 192 hours of hands-on NICU preceptorship, and preparing to take the NCLEX. But the conversation quickly turns to something many nursing programs don't prepare you for: the search for that first nursing job. Despite an MSN, a strong clinical record, and glowing recommendations, Stella applied to nearly every NICU in California and was denied by all of them. She opens up about the emotional toll of repeated rejection, the nursing shortage paradox that leaves new grads competing fiercely for a shrinking number of residency spots, and why she made the decision to look out of state rather than settle for a specialty she didn't want. Her story is raw, honest, and relevant for any new grad nurse navigating today's competitive job market. Key Takeaways Don't settle for the wrong specialty. Taking a job in a unit you don't want just to get hired can make transitioning into your dream specialty later even harder. Start applying before you graduate. Some new grad residency programs close months before graduation. Others open applications for only 24 hours with no public notice. Networking matters. Stella secured her NICU preceptorship because she made a strong impression during her leadership rotation. Connections can open doors that applications alone cannot. Broaden your geographic search. If your local market is oversaturated, looking out of state can unlock opportunities and help you grow in unexpected ways. Protect your confidence. Rejection after rejection takes a real toll. Staying focused on your goal and leaning on your support system can make all the difference Chapters 00:00 – Introduction and why this episode is different 01:49 – Stella's background: from UCSB psychology to the USD MEPN program 03:08 – MEPN vs. ABSN: understanding the pathways into nursing 04:25 – The three-week boot camp that kicked off her program 07:54 – How preceptorships work and why specialty selection is so competitive 09:22 – NICU placement and the power of networking for new grad nurses 11:47 – NCLEX prep: how Kaplan and school support set Stella up for success 15:26 – The new grad job hunt begins, and why the timeline catches many off guard 18:37 – The nursing shortage paradox: high demand, fierce competition 19:03 – Applying to every NICU in California and facing rejection 21:10 – Looking out of state: Nashville, Georgia, Colorado, and beyond 26:43 – The emotional reality of repeated rejection 30:08 – Stella's advice: stay confident, don't settle, and go where the opportunity is 35:36 – Closing thoughts and words of encouragement for new grad nurses Meet Our Guest, Stella Leiken Stella Leiken is a recent MSN graduate from the University of San Diego's Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN). She earned her undergraduate degree in psychology from UC Santa Barbara before working in a private ophthalmology practice, an experience that confirmed nursing as her true calling. Through her MEPN program, Stella completed 192 hours of NICU clinical preceptorship across two semesters, gaining hands-on experience caring for critically ill infants. She is preparing to take the NCLEX and is actively searching for her first nursing role.

Without question, Dr. Regina Beard, RN, loves people. As life has dealt her a few daunting obstacles, she hasn't wallowed in them, but instead has made it her mission to be a clarion example of what resilience and determination can achieve. Born in the midwestern community of Gary, IN, Dr. Beard professes that she was a failing student in high school. Yet, she persevered and would become a first-generation college graduate, and the very first in her immediate family to own a business. At the age of 20, Dr. Beard was the mother of two children. Being a young mother came with a lot of responsibility, and she was intent on providing a secure life for her family. Dr. Beard recalls that while she was a freshman at Andrean High School, her teacher, Coach Bob Buscher, gave her an assignment to explore a future career. "I told my dad, and he told me to become the kind of nurse who puts patients to sleep. My dad told me to become a CNA, and then a LPN, and instructed me to follow that with becoming an RN. I was so intrigued that I did the research and called Methodist Northlake, a local hospital, to find out more, and learned the correct title for that kind of nurse is a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). It also required a Masters Degree. I would eventually fail Biology and decide that nursing wasn't for me, and give up on that dream." Life would continue to happen for Dr. Beard. In the back of her mind, her dream of becoming a nurse continued to fester, and she would seek new ways to fulfill that dream. "In 2003, I became intentional about my walk with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It was a new journey and I was on fire for the Lord. All I wanted was to be in His presence and will. I was going through a fasting series with my church titled "Daring to Dream Again." That journey showed me that I had given up on my God-given dreams. I also realized that my dreams as a person were limited. I wanted more, but didn't know where to start. My new journey provided the tools to deepen my walk with Christ, and I began to utilize principles in the Bible to transform my life. I prayed to God about what He wanted me to do, and soon had a dream about going into the nursing program. I took all of my practical nursing courses at Ivy Tech, but still, I wasn't accepted into the nursing program, and I "My new journey provided the tools to deepen my walk with Christ, and I began to utilize principles in the Bible to transform my life." I began to doubt my dreams. I would eventually take the program three times and still wasn't accepted. I was in my last prerequisite when I overheard a couple of classmates discussing a new 16-month practical nursing program. I prayed to God to confirm if He wanted me to go in this direction. I also met with Purdue University and Brown Mackie to inquire more about their programs, and Brown Mackie said that I would only require 11 months with credit from my prerequisites at Ivy Tech. Purdue told me that as long as I passed NCLEx, I would be eligible to attend their program. That news was major, and I realized that I would be able to complete the PN program at Brown Mackie, pass the NCLEX, and eventually obtain my Associate's Degree from Purdue and become an RN. I enrolled and earned A's and B's, and completed the program in 2006," Dr. Beard says. She would return to school to get her other degrees, including a doctorate in Nursing. "Earning my Doctorate Degree wasn't a part of my dream, it was God's. God desires to use this degree for His glory." Fully armed academically, Dr. Beard set her sights on serving others. Today, in Hobart, IN, she manages several businesses, including a non-profit organization. One of her businesses is VicTory Training, which provides Healthcare Training for Nurse Aides, Qualified Medication Aides, Dental Assistants, Medical Assistants, Phlebotomists, Pharmacy Techs, and Electrocardiogram (EKG) Techs. Dr. Beard shares that VicTory Training came from one of the lowest seasons of her life. She was an unemployed Nurse and was taking care of her father, who was dealing with terminal cancer. "I realized that I had something living inside of me that every time I turned to it, it would prosper. I also realized that one of my greatest attributes is teaching, and I decided to use that gift to make money," she shares. Dr. Beard began teaching her Nurses Aide course in 2015. Another business that Dr. Beard owns is VicTory at Home-Indiana Home Care Agency. With this, she provides attendant care (bathing and grooming) and homemaker services (light housekeeping and cooking) for her clients. "We are dedicated to providing safe, caring and understanding companionship, personal care, skilled care and home support services to physically-challenged, convalescing and dependent individuals of all ages in the comfort of their own homes," she says. Her non-profit organization, VicTory 4 Kidz, encourages young people to fall in love with healthcare careers. Founded in 2022, VicTory 4 Kidz aims to inspire young children to pursue healthcare careers by exposing them to various healthcare careers. The program offers camp sessions, including a one week-long camp for children aged 10-13 years old. They also collaborate with various individuals and organizations to teach student campers valuable skills that will benefit them throughout their daily lives. "We teach, we inspire, and we transform," Dr. Beard says. With all of her academic and even personal accomplishments in life, Dr. Beard continues to find ways to serve others. Possibly, her actions and interests are a result of her life's journey. Regardless, Dr. Beard is living by purpose. "I am committed to having a lasting and profound impact on my community. My faith in God is what continues to drive and push me. I also find inspiration in my father, mother, aunt Monica Beard, and Maynard Beard Jr. I also draw inspiration from my grandmothers, my children, and spiritual leaders, including the late Apostle Jo Ann Long, Archbishop William Hudson III, and Prophet Andria Hudson," she shares. Most recently, she was honored as the NWI Non-Profit Influential Woman of the Year by the Northwest Indiana Influential Association for Women (NWI-IAW). As she looks to the future, she is focused on securing a legacy for her family, businesses, and organizations. "My desire is for them not to ever return to where we started. The goal is for us to ensure that our rental properties provide subsidized housing for a family or young mother to change the trajectory of their lives," she says. Her advice to others who may follow a similar path in life as hers is to pray and seek God's will for your life. "Be obedient about living a lifestyle that is pleasing and acceptable to Christ. You don't have to believe in the vision, but if you're obedient, you will see the vision come to pass."

Prodcast: ПоиÑк работы в IT и переезд в СШÐ
В этом выпуске у меня в гостях Александра Федорова — лицензированная медсестра LPN во Флориде и основатель крупнейшего русскоязычного сообщества о купонинге в США «Купонинг по-русски». Александра прошла путь от переезда в США без медицинского образования до получения лицензии медсестры и работы в американской системе здравоохранения.Мы обсудили, как устроена профессия медсестры в США на практике: какие виды лицензий существуют (LPN и RN), сколько стоит обучение и сколько времени оно занимает, как проходит обучение и практика, как устроен экзамен NCLEX и получение лицензии. Разобрали, где могут работать медсестры — от госпиталей и домов престарелых до страховых компаний и домашнего ухода, сколько можно зарабатывать на старте, какие есть карьерные траектории и возможности роста. Отдельно поговорили о подводных камнях профессии, юридических рисках, профессиональном выгорании, а также о том, кому подходит работа медсестры и какие стереотипы о профессии не соответствуют реальности.Александра Федорова — Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) во Флориде, основательница крупнейшего русскоязычного сообщества по купонингу в США "Купонинг по-русски" (40 000+ подписчиков)Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ruscoupon2Telegram: https://t.me/ruscouponYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/RuscouponВидео по близким темам:Налоги в США: спроси бухгалтера, пока не поздно.
