Abstract
Purpose: This qualitative study was carried out to understand the experiences of nursing graduate candidates as a group. Methods: Experiential data were collected by means of in-depth interviews with seven experienced graduating student nurses. Conclusion: The results showed the following theme clusters in terms of the experiences of nursing graduate candidates: Feelings as a novice, lack of confidence in performing the job as a preliminary nurse, vagueness and anxiety about human relationships, conflicts in the process of becoming a nurse, and strengthening competence in the process of becoming a nurse. Therefore, it is necessary to change negative elements, such as conflicts and pressures experienced as a graduate candidate, and a strategy is needed to strengthen the positive elements of a student becoming a nurse; such changes may have a positive influence on nursing students’ academic success and their role performance as new nurses after graduation.
