   runna909, how's the job search going in CA? I just moved back to CA after graduating school - it's been already 2 months and I haven't had any luck yet! Keep the faith and I hope we will find something soon! Good luck

   Job Outlook Advice needed, Thanks!

   vang1127 replied to EMEddie's topic in California

   I totally agree with the above poster! I graduated out of state and moved back to CA without any networks and work experience at hospitals - it's hard to even land an interview. School was the easier part for me You're doing the right thing of preparing ahead of graduation. Good luck!

   vang1127 replied to zornzo's topic in California

   I've just received my CA license thru endorsement - it took about 6 weeks! I couldn't even check on the status or reach a live person on the phone. Good luck and hope yours will come sooner!

   Advice please...moving to California, a mistake?

   vang1127 replied to sarahneeyah's topic in California

   I totally agree with the above post - when I did my prereq's for nursing, I was attending 3 different community colleges around the bay area. I would stick it out here since you have a great job! I just moved back from out of state and I gotta tell you, the job market for RNs is a lot worse than trying to find classes. Start applying to various community colleges and take one class here and one there. Good luck!

   Changing Careers to Nursing as 35 year old man

   vang1127 replied to DB7721's topic in Men

   35 year old new grad with BSN here. I did an accelerated program out of state - the hard part was not school but being away from my wife and baby. School was not too bad; however, looking for my first job (esp. in the Bay Area) is much tougher. Go for it man and start networking while you are in school! Good luck and you'll do great!

    This article is great! I've been searching for job online for 2 months without landing 1 interview I should definitely try something new. Living in the Bay Area makes it a lot worse ...
