frustrated

I have been certified for 4mths now and still no JOB! grrrrrr I live in a small town and yes I will admit I am kinda picky,I dont want to work in an nh unless its only part time,I recently applied for a hospital position and went in for the math test,which I aced,I THOUGHT sure I would get an interview, nothing yet! And I have practically begged the ALF here for a job,but they just arent hiring right now. I went through my 2mths of classes,got certified and I'm just aggravated because I want to use the skills! anyone else had a problem finding a suitable position? thanks,Michelle

Depending on what your goals are I would not be so picky if I were you. If you are going into the field of nursing to make a quick dollar then be as picky as you want. But if you are going into this field for he long haul... to be an LPN or RN then if I were you I would do what ever it takes to get your foot in the door. Where ever you are working you will get plenty of experience. And if are are trying to become a nurse make sure you are an advicate for your own learning. If you do this... by the time you are ready to become get into NS you will feel very comfortable.
