Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and I desperately need some help. I have a pretty long story, but I'll condense it down to a few lines, hopefully. :)
I have 8 years of pediatric experience, then 3 years of NICU in another hospital. Was fired from that job because I violated a policy, and then was reported to the state. License suspended for a year, then probation for a year. So this all happened in 2006--spent the last 5 years trying to get things straight and have not worked in the field for that long. My license has been "active" for the past year, but I have been unable to find a job--have interviewed all over the place, and no one will hire me.
Now my license is up for renewal and I don't have the work hours needed to renew it. It's so frustrating because once the probation was lifted, I went full- force trying to find a job--but as soon as I explain why I was terminated from my last job, I get the "we'll let you know" speech and then I never hear from them again.
What's a girl to do? My license expires at the end of September, just go the renewal paperwork in the mail today, and I have to return it by the end of August. It's frustrating--all I need is a 2nd chance to prove myself, and no one will give it to me. BLAH!
