Experienced RN cannot get interview!

I’m an RN with 20 years experience, 19 of them in women’s health (L&D, high-risk antes, OR/PACU, nursery, postpartum, a small bit of gyn). Charge nurse for the majority of my 20 years. Due to the utter insanity (aka unsafe staffing) of my department for the last 5 years as well as my recent back issues (the number of morbidly obese pregnant women these days is overwhelming!) I’ve been trying for over a year now to get in with several major insurance companies (Anthem, Aetna, United, Humana, Cigna) doing either telephonic case mgmt, utilization review, or even part-time OB home visits. I apply to at least 3 jobs WEEKLY. I get NO interviews....not even an initial phone interview. I’ve had multiple people review my resume & cover letter and they have all said they are stellar. Any advice?? Am I TOO specialized? I am at my wit’s end.

    It took me a year of applying to ever get a response. It's frustrating, but I have heard that these companies average about 350 applications for each remote position. Make sure you pick out the key words in the job description and speak to them in your resume and cover letter. It doesn't matter how stellar your resume and cover letter are if they don't contain the key words to get through the automated system review that filters resumes. Don't give up!!
