I am a new grad nurse with 6 years experience as an EMT and I am SO frustrated with the job market. I graduated in May and took my NCLEX in July and have been applying to jobs ever since. I started applying in the Worcester area and now have gone everywhere from ct to maine and I just cannot get a job. I feel like I screwed myself by not working as a CNA or assistant during school and working as an EMT instead because I don't have anywhere that I can apply as an internal applicant. I have applied for over 400 jobs...WHAT DO I DO? I am going crazy and really freaking out because I have 1,000 due in loan payments on December 18. Anyone know anywhere in MA that is hiring, has an in, or just might be willing to hire a new grad. I am so lost and down, just wondering if my 4 years of school was even worth it now...
Hi, I am also in Worcester. I am also in the same boat. can't find a job. I have RN experience from India but almost every hospital want US experience. Now i have applied to many agencies even for home care. Best of luck dear
