Words of Wisdom from New RNs!

Recently, two of our BS alumni who were part of the HEOP program at NYU came to provide advice on preparing for jobs after graduation. Our current students eagerly asked question after question gaining loads of knowledge on life after graduation!

So what did our fantastic alumni Aneela Naz ('12) and Luilly Vargas ('12) have to say?

  • They felt very well prepared as new nurses in the field, thanks to their education at NYUCN.
  • Network, network, network - through keeping in touch with the nurse manager at the hospital she externed at, Aneela was able to maintain the relationship and landed her first job at NYU Langone Medical Center and she loves it! Start building key relationships as soon as possible!
  • Luilly shared this tip with students: it's all about patient care. When interviewing, be prepared to provide examples of exemplary patient care that you provided either during your clinicals or as interns or externs. Luilly is currently an RN at Beth Israel Medical Center.
A big thank you to Aneela and Luilly for sharing their valuable stories.

Good luck job hunting!
