Abstract
Objective
To know and understand the experience lived by clinical nurses who tutor newly graduated peers during their hiring stage in hospitals and other health organizations in the country.
Method
Qualitative study of phenomenological approach carried out in Chile between the months of September 2019 to January 2020, COVID-19 prepandemic. An in-depth interview was conducted with fifteen clinical nurses. The data analysis was guided by the methodological principles of Alfred Schütz's social phenomenology, the results in the light of his theory and the scientific references associated with the subject.
Results
Three categories and twelve themes emerged in this study. Despite differences in their sociodemographic data, all fifteen participants reported similar experiences in the role of peer tutoring recent graduates. They all mentored from their own mentoring experience and without guidelines from their organization, faced the same difficulties and needs, and raised the same criticisms for improvement related to changes that would allow them to improve their performance.
Conclusions
From the perspective of the fifteen nurses it was possible to know and understand how they live the experience of mentoring newly graduated peers in the workplace, however, the results should be taken with caution due to the limitations of the study. Further research on this topic is recommended.

Enfermería Clínica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that is a useful and necessary tool for nursing professionals from the different areas of nursing (healthcare, administration, education and research) as well as for healthcare professionals involved in caring for persons, families and the community. It is the only Spanish nursing journal that mainly publishes original research. The aim of the Journal is to promote increased knowledge through the publication of original research and other studies that may help nursing professionals improve their daily practice. This objective is pursued throughout the different sections that comprise the Journal: Original Articles and Short Original Articles, Special Articles, Patient Care and Letters to the Editor. There is also an Evidence-Based Nursing section that includes comments about original articles of special interest written by experts.
