they dont include your schooling as experience? like clinicals.

Wow over one year, that is hard, first of all if you are being picking about the pay or location or hours, stop being picking, i finally a good stable job and its a hour drive from where I live, and traffic can get really crazy sometimes, but you gotta do what you gotta do, and it was the only job i could find that would hire new grads, when doing your job search, look for places that are willing to hire new grads, also look into the places you did clinics, they must remeber you, and the school you intended probably has someone who can help you find a job, also career centers, and do you have anybody you know in the medical field you can help you? On top of that maybe go back to school and pursue your RN, and it wouldnt hurt to work as CNA at least, that will help with your networking and just getting ur foot in the door for some places.
