U.S.A. Pennsylvania

Published

hello everyone. just need a little help. i've been certified as a nursing assistant since september 2007 and have been applying to numerous jobs all over the creation. from mercy all the way to saint chris' and nursing homes in between. i have used the internet and phone book as my resources applying and calling almost everyday since 2007. i feel exhausted and as if there is no hope. from all the stories i thought it would be easy to find a cna job. however it seems as is i was wrong.:bluecry1:

so with that said i was wondering would any of you ladies and gents know of any places that would possibly consider hiring a not so fresh out of training cna grad????? its been over a year now. :o

what a waste 1,700 dollars i payed to red cross they did not have any job placement at all!
