Looking for Advice-Just Starting Out and Will be moving

I am just starting to get going in the Nursing field. I plan to get my RN but right now I am currently getting certification for my LPN. I plan on moving to the Porland area, or the Astoria area of Oregon. I am wondering where the best places are to work as an LPN in those areas for people just beginning in the field? And any other advice at all would be awesome! Thanks!
