Jsverk 8 Posts Nov 16, 2010 not that great in Massachusetts.. Really bad if you're a new grad like me
Heavenward, LVN, RN 8 Posts Has 16 years experience. Nov 17, 2010 I agree with Cawkazn in Southern California. Extremely limited opportunities here for LVN.
caliotter3 38,333 Posts Nov 17, 2010 Southern CA, no jobs. No jobs for new LVNs or for LVNs with extensive experience.
fawnfalls 37 Posts Nov 17, 2010 Really scary to hear that...I'm just about to sit for the boards. My girlfriend can't even find work and she is an RN. I just got a cna job...guess i'll be doing that for awhile
Leelee2 344 Posts Nov 17, 2010 In wisconsin LPN market is ok, if you don't mind LTC. Extremely rough job market for RN new grads in my area though...everyone wants them to have experience. Seeing some of them starting in LTC here, pretty tough for them to get into Hospital settings here without the experience.
