Seeking CNA employment in Georgia

1. Hello everyone. I'm relocating to Georgia from California. I've already applied for and received my Nurse Assistant license. I'm having trouble with finding temporary staffing agencies near Douglasville were I plan to move. I'm seeking employment with a staffing agency that does hospital staffing 12 hr. Shifts. Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated thank you.

   Moving to GA Nursing Forum for a more targeted response. Best of luck!

   I am not sure about staffing agencies in GA. I worked at St. Joe's in ATL and the only agency workers we had were sitters from Maxim. Any particular reason you want to work with a staffing agency instead of being hired on with a facility?

   Hi Tait,
   
   Thanks for your reply I appreciate it. I would like to be hired with a hospital, however I've been applying for employment with various hospitals like emory, wellstar, piedmont, grady, northside and haven't been called for an interview. Or I either get an email saying the position for which I've applied for has been closed, or another applicant was picked. So I figured my best bet would be to temp at a hospital and hopefully then I would get offered a permanent full time position.

   I think once you are in Ga. it may be easier to get an interview. A lot of hospitals try to not use agency because of the cost...if you aren't set on a hospital you can try home health, hospice and long term care. Good luck.

   Thank you so much Marshall. I was stuck on a hospital but seeing how difficult's it's been to obtain an interview Home Health is start to seem like an option at this point.
