I truly understand Sir, in my case, it's been 4 years since I graduated from BSN. The situation in the Philippines in really rotten. I volunteered for almost a year but wasn't absorbed because I don't have "backer" or connections to help me land a job. It's so frustrating. To add, I think you could not get HAAD exam without a basic 2 years experience as "Staff Nurse: Volunteer Experience not honored". I believe you've taken the HAAD Sir. Did they require you to submit a Certificate of Employment before taking the exam? What were the requirements they needed before taking the exam? I really try my best to pull myself together as a nurse but reality is really depressing for me. I do hope for your reply to my query Sir. Best of luck!
