New grad moving to californiaRating: (votes: 1) You'll take the same NCLEX anywhere in the US. If you're in any doubt as to whether the CA BoN will accept your education from a college in OH to take the NCLEX there (or grant you licensure by reciprocity from OH based on your OH education), ask them. California is a big state. Salaries vary from rural to metropolitan areas. It's hard for new grads to get work, though. Why not get a job in OH for at least a year, and have a leg up on all the unemployed new grads in CA? Comment:
Quote from andreeadIs it hard to get the ca license as an rn if I graduated in ohio?
Comment:
Quote from TheCommuter...Unless you are well-connected, or physically attractive, or possess the determination of a bull in a china shop, landing that first job as a new grad in CA might be an uphill battle.
Comment:
Also agree that one to two years of solid experience in Ohio will go a long way toward helping you land that first job in CA. And when you move to CA, make certain that you have a lot of money saved up to tide you over whether or not you have a job offer in your suitcase.
