New LPN and the job hunt

Published

Hey guys ! I Graduated my LPN program in August and took boards in Novemeber and passed. I began looking for jobs in December and have yet to find a job. So far the majority of facilities have said they wanted someome with experience which really sucks. I've been applying to places every single day and I would've thought I would have had a job by now. I'm beginning to get discouraged and this is really putting a toll on me financially and emotionally. My question, do any of you guys know who is accepting new grads in Georgia ?! I've honestly applied everywhere !
