NEWBIE HELLO

Published

Hello everyone,

I am new to the post. Over the years I have viewed many discussions, and found the advise very helpful. I am in the process of job hunting and it's pretty frustrating. I resigned from a verrrrrrrrrrrry stressful job, and now I am in a difficult position. I have sent out resumes after resumes. I am very well educated but the jobs that interest me many times require a masters. It's upsetting because everyone says there are so many options in nursing but they are very limited without a masters. I have even applied to non-nursing jobs but this is all I know. I look at all my friends that completed other degree programs and they are so happy and successful. It took a lot hard work and dedication to get here but I am yet to find a job I really enjoy. People say come on how could a nurse be unemployed well, if you do not prefer bedside care you can be unemployed. Thanks for helping me to vent.

I am an experienced nurse. It's hard not to give up. I love working it makes me feel valued and a sense of accomplishment. When i am not working I feel useless. Nursing is my second career my first was business. I feel so stuck like I'm never going to find a job thats satisfactory. I have financial obligations but it's hard for me to do something I dislike. What am I going to do?
