Hi everybody, I am taking pre-requisites to apply for an accelerated second degree BSN and for what I have been reading, the job marketis terrible for nurses and now I am wondering if it is worth it to spend $40kor more to change careers. This is my story: I moved from Argentina in 2003 to Massachusettsescaping the economic crisis. I learned English and soon got into college andobtained my BS in Applied Mathematics hoping to work in the financial field.Meanwhile I was hired at a local hospital as a dental assistant and interpreterbecause of my language skills. After graduating in 2009 I was again caught inthe middle of the worst economic crisis this country had faced and it wasimpossible for me to find a job in my field of study. So I went and got myteaching license, but I couldn't find a job either because of the hiringfreeze. After working for 10 years inthe health care field as a medical interpreter, dental assistant and patient coordinator,I decided to make a career change and become an RN since I truly enjoy workingin the healthcare field. The thought of going through all of it again, just tofind myself struggling to find a job or make a loan payment makes me sick to mystomach. I need some point of view thatwill enlighten me.....please help!!
