If I don't get this job, I'm done.

Published

Hopefully I get this job I've interviewed at 3 times because if not I'm done trying to be a cna. This is complete crap, I'm not applying to work for NASA, it's a cna job, it doesn't take a Master's degree to do it.

Also every place that didn't hire me can kiss my butt. Sick of this crap.

I'm sorry you're having such trouble getting a job as a CNA :/ Have you tried different nursing homes, home health, etc?

Maybe it's your attitude...?

You're not cute or funny, my attitude is fine when I go on job interviews. This is suppose to be an anonymous board where you can post your thoughts and feelings, and I expressed my frustrations about job hunting, so don't judge me

Sometimes people just reach their limit, and I've reached mine, so next time don't jump to conclusions. I've been looking for 5 months, and I'm done if I don't get this. It's a difficult job, but it's not rocket science.

Sorry my baby playing with my phone. But don't get discouraged. Just keep applying every where n to everyone sooner or later something will come just stay positive n rethink what was said in interviews maybe changing the way you answer questions or respond can help. Good luck something will come.

It is really hard right now everywhere. A lot of other fields of work have people leaving them because of the economy, so nursing is getting oversaturated. Don't let it discourage you, if you truly want to be a CNA. It may take some time, but it will pay off.

Also, out of all the places I've applied to, only two have actually met me in person, or actually called me. The second place is the one I'm going through the interview process with.

It was a suggestion. Name calling isn't necessary. Moaning and groaning as well as venting has a time and place. This is a supportive site where many ask questions and offer advice and experience. Keep it professional.

I know the difference between a suggestion and a snarky comment, and what she said was a snarky comment.

My aunt's a nurse and said the same thing. She said a lot of people go into it thinking the job market for nursing is booming, and the reality is it's just like any other career or job.
