Hi, I know most nurses graduate young. I waited until my kids were older and I have more life experience as a result than younger nurses. On the other hand, I have not been able to get a job in acute care. I have interviewed and applied to many jobs. I don't know if it is my age, resume, do I interview horrible. I have gotten other jobs, but I just don't seem to be worthy of acute care, and that's why I went to nursing school. I wanted to work in the hospital. By the way, I am now 46, was 39 at graduation.
Any advice? Anyone? I would really appreciate someone who interviews and hires to respond to this.
Thanks!!!
