Abstract
Purpose: This study determined the intention of obtaining long-term work by graduate nursing students. Methods: The subjects were 116 students in the fourth year of the nursing department located in G city of G province and G city of J province. A structured questionnaire was used from November 1, 2018 to November 27, 2018 for data collection. The SPSS/WIN 21.0 program was used for the collected data and the data was analyzed by t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. Result: The major factors influencing the intention to work were satisfaction with their academic major (β=.54, p<.001), and the career after employment in a hospital) (β=.28, p<.001). The explanatory power was 46.5% (F=51.00, p<.001). Conclusion: To increase the satisfaction of studying nursing, it is necessary to apply various educational programs to positively recognize the nursing profession and a nurse's image and increase optimism and social efficacy. There is a need to develop a tool to measure the intention of obtaining long-term nursing jobs for nursing students in hospitals. This study suggested a way to increase the intention of obtaining long-term work by improving the degree of satisfaction with nursing profession.
