Ok I have applied fro everything from House keeping to CNA to PCT (no experiance required) and I can't even get a call back. I have only taken 2 classes so far but I have a 4.0 and I'm willing to work any shift. I just had no idea it would be this hard to get even a phone call back with the major shortage of anyone in healthcare. I don't expect to get the perfect life long position but heck I can clean a floor and wash sheets . I just want my foot in the door.

Ok so to whine I'm just annoyed right now.

I am having the same issues. I am looking for part time work just while I go to school. I applied to hospitals, nursing homes ect, no luck. Ok, so then I go to the temp agencies. More for like clerical work, 7-8 dollars/hour. I have a BS and 20+ years in business. Honestly, the temp agency tells me I am unqualified. They told me their clients want the moon but only will pay 6-8 dollars an hour. Can someone please explain this economy to me!

Ok at least I know I'm not alone! Ok explaine to me why I would be declines to be a housekeeper?????? I mean the qualifications for the job were: Must be literate and will provide on the job training. I may be blonde but I promise I can read and write and follow directions. It just doesn't make any sense and no one can seem to give me an answer when I call HR as to why I have not been selected to at least interview. Amazing to me. My DH was laughing last night and said no wonder they claim to have a shortage they won't hire anyone!!!

Most nursing homes these days have CNA classes.

Ok so I'm declined for an interview even for a housekeeping position. I can change sheet and use a wahing machine. Oh well the right job will come I just need to pray that Gad will put me in the right place at the right time.
