Wecome to my world, I've been on the hunt for 2 years. Keep at it, we will both get there on day ) Also be on the look out for Skills refresher course on a local colleges, might be a good thing to have on the resume. Volunteer never hurt either.

Don't let this defeat you!! If this is what you really want to do then, be a nurse. I've been out for 2 years, so I'm worse off then you, but I keep applying and keep trying. recently I found a refresher course for new grads at a local college, and i...

I was let go for similar reasons, I had little support and too many preceptor. First and for most, don't panic, you will get through this. Do what I should have done and, talk your preceptor, ask her to stop talking behind you and help you. Ask her w...

:yeah::yeah: Say it louder I don't think anyone heard you!!!! :w00t:

That's a easy question for me, it the inablility to get new nurses hired. We had thousands answer the "Nursing Shortage" call, and yet when those thousands graduated, only a handful of jobs were there. And before anyone says in was just the economy, ...

Good tips, wish I had comunity hospitals in my area. I have joined a professional group and they have been soo helpful to me! Will have to looking to taking some classes to see if it helps, but and this point I feel it would be crazy not to apply at ...

Congrats!! I hope to say those same words soon:D

NOPE, at least not in Seattle. All employers care about is experience. I have a BSN and I have been looking for almost 2 years. I was told that having the degree will mostly help in the future, some hospitals require it, but are willing to hiring if ...

While Nursing school was hard and brought me to tears, nothing compares to searching 2 years for job your not "qualified" for. I have never been so hurt, angry and frustrated on a daily basis. I can remember hating school at time, but never do I reme...

Story of my life:rolleyes:

HA is all I have to say to them!! I don't know the exact numbers but there are more people then jobs out there. I have been searching for over a year! the "shortage" is a lie!! Yes school need more good educators, that is true if education over all, ...

Washington State, Seattle-Tacoma area, and like someone said were New grad. Those "millions" of jobs are you sure they are for new grads or for those that have at least one or more years experience? Because I have found some hospitals out hear with 2...

Working retail is where I'm headed I can't get a job soon! Still I haven't giving up yet either. Good luck :)

That job sound great, be thankful besides you can do so much as an IT nurse within a hospital if you choose to leave it won't matter that you aren't "in a clinical area"!!!

You do what you have to do. I spent an entire year looking for a job before I found one (graduated may 09), then lost that job just 4 months later. Now I'm back looking for a job again. I've also started to apply for part time job doing anything, dis...

Well after graduating in May 2009, moving back to my home state, I waiting a full year for my first nuring job, and after 4 months and the old "it's just not working out". So here I am again, applying to every job I can find within driving distance. ...

I feel your pain, I graduated in May 09, and here I am looking for a job after the first I landed (after and year of searching didn't want me any more!) I really wish I knew the secret to getting a job, because clearly having a degree, or having pre...

what's that suppose to mean:confused: please tell me you are trying to be sarcastic, and you understood i meant the "image" of nursing, that is to say the nurses in my mind as child stood out do to there actions, not what they wore! i hardly see how ...

I graduated my May 09 with my BSN, and passed board that July. I took me a full year to get a job, so I am beyond grateful, I'm blessed to have a job! I'm in a residency on a med/tele floor that currently has ortho as well but over the next year will...

Would I no, just as when I worked in factory, I didn't wear the jeans I was expected to wear while working. That being said I was passed over in many interviews despite dressing "apporpriately" and being told I was an excellent canidate. Take from th...

since you have clearly miss understood what i have been trying to say i can see there is not point in trying any longer. good today to everyone

:mad: SORRY TO BURST YOURS BUT ACTUALLY I DON'T!!! Yes I might see a person across the room and think that is a woman when it could be a man is true, however I DO NOT say they are incompentent or unprofessional based on that!! People who do that run ...

What part of I DON'T JUDGE PEOPLE LEST I BE JUDGED is not getting through. I have been judged before, therfore I don't look and people and make judgements, I wait until I see them interact or they start talking. And if you read my post and the OP he...

I'm going to say this once as this seems to apply to me only, so please don't take this the wrong way but I DON'T LIE!! Having spent my ENTIRE life being judged by my looks (racial) I can honestly say that I don't think a person in uncompetent or unp...

My last job did because "people couldn't tell who there nurse was"....a stupid excuse do to the fact that everyone from the secretary to the dietary aide is in scrubs, the ones who complain are diagnosed with confusion anyway, and people don't or can...
