hard to find a job

Published

I am having an extremly hard time trying to find a job in the Georgia area, its almost as if you need to know someone to get a job. I have been in georgia almost a month and i have been on 4 interviews with one clinic and 3 home health agencies. i have 1.5 years experience on a cardiac/med surg/pre & post op unit.5 years of healthcare experience as a LPN. Does anyone in the georgia area know of any facilities hiring.

R u LPN or RN? The reason I ask is because I know several hospital that have stopped hiring LPNs.

Knowing people and getting referrals are helpful. My hospital only hired a bunch of new grads recently but we r broke so we aren't hiring even though we are in dyer need of RN full time positions. But I'm on the south Atlanta side of town. I wish I could help you more.

Grady is hiring as well. You are experienced, so I am sure they would extend you a offer if they like how you interview :)

I had a mock interview when I was graduating and everything went well and sometimes I do go over some questions with my cousin because she works in HR and conduct many interviews

Hospitals around here are hard to get into. Try applying to residency programs (even though you have experience). Also, I found my most recent job (in peds PACU) on Craigslist. Can't hurt to look there!
