    I live in ocean county and can not find a job anywhere at all. I have applied at every single kind of healthcare facility imaginable and I put applications in every day and also to the same places over and over again. The same places are constantly posted on careerbuilder saying they are looking for LPN's and I keep applying but I hear nothing! Maybe they wouldnt need to keep looking if they just started hiring some people starting with me! I always put that I am available to work any shift all days and I can start right away but that doesn't help at all. I have some LPN per diem experience and CNA experience plus RN reference's but nothing matters. I wasted my time in nursing school when I should have went to school for something else.

    Sorry but I just needed to vent

    Don't give up. It may seem discouraging, but something will come along.

    Have you tried any of the private duty home cares agencies other than Bayada? Several agencies with shift work will hire new grads.

    How far away are you?! I may have something that I know of lpn right? Not how sure you want to travel?
