New Year, New Nursing Career: Get a Head Start on 2023

There are plenty of reasons to want a new job to kick off the new year; salary, benefits, responsibilities. A new job could also pave the way for more career growth. If you're at all unhappy with your current role, that's reason enough to look elsewhere. If you're stuck in a dead-end role, the sooner you bust out of it, the more progress you can make, and there are lots of opportunities to be had.

If you're serious about starting off 2023 with a new job, the the time to start your search is now. People tend to take time off around the Christmas holidays so you may find that job listings slow down. Even if listings don't slow down, interviews might! Simply because the people who need to conduct them and make decisions are out of the office. As such, it pays to get ahead of the holiday season by kicking off your job search as soon as possible!

We’ve outlined the steps to consider for making the move in 2023:
