The aim of this study was to investigate the employment status of midwifery and nursing graduates of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study all nursing and midwifery graduates who were graduated between years of 1383-87 were studied. Data was collected with questionnaires. Data analysis was performed by utilizing SPSS statistical software on 203 filled questionnaires.  Results: The results indicated that 27.55% of midwifery graduates were unemployed, 4.08% were probationally hired, 18.37% had contracts and 15.31% were hired through human resources plan. 11.43 percent of nursing graduates were unemployed, 39.05% hired through human resources plan, and more than a third of them had yearly or probation contracts. More than 70 percent of graduates worked in public centers and the majority was working in hospitals.
