How can I get hired at a hospital with no experience? I finished school but got pregnant and stayed home for a year. I took the nclex in December and job searching but no one wants to hire me cause I haven’t worked but I’m not considered new grad.

In my area, you are considered a new grad if you have less than one year of nursing experience. To get hired at any hospital, you ought to be applying to new grad residency programs.

But you are a new grad if you haven't worked yet. Keep trying lots of nice places out there, Maybe explain your circumstances in your application, Good luck :)
