I've seen a lot about the need for NICU and other nurses will continue to go up. I was wondering if it's hard to get a job as a nurse, specifically a NICU nurse, and if there is a need for them right now and what that all looks like? Because I've also heard/seen that everyone wants to be working in the NICU so it's hard to get into.?
