How To Apply For A GN/GVN Position
At UMC, you will encounter a nursing environment and culture that values your knowledge and clinical skills — and encourages your input for clinical decision-making.
Graduate Nurses (GNs) and Graduate Vocational Nurses (GVNs) are welcome at UMC! You will benefit from a personalized GN or GVN program which introduces you to your new responsibilities in a kind, professional, and nurturing environment. The goal of our programs is to provide a comfortable and safe transition for the Graduate Nurse and Graduate Vocational Nurse into the acute care setting.
GN positions will open three times per year (please see chart below). Positions typically post on the first Monday of the listed month. Please note these positions are highly competitive, and may remain open for only about one week due to the high volume of applications and limited number of openings. You must have your GN permit or be newly licensed as a RN (Texas or compact) before you start. If you have questions please call Nurse Recruitment at 806.775.8912.
