Part of what created the "shortage" in the first place was nurse burnout. Many nurses left the field voluntarily. So when unemployment rose, many of them returned to nursing pushing out a lot of the new grads. The dean of my nursing school is actually writing letters to local hospitals begging them to give new grads interviews.
