Renewed Rn license, and still no job!

[Shandyjp]

Hey all,

i just joined and it sounds like a lot of us are in a similar scenario of jobs. I am so frustrated! I graduated aug of 2012, got my license in feb 13, and just renewed it because its expiring the end of this month and not 1 job offer! Ive applied sooo many times and finally got an interview (royally blew that!) and only because we knew the hiring person. Anyone have any suggestions? Ive got indeed.com and another site that daily delivers jobs in my email inbox. This is so discouraging, ive posted my resume on indeed's site and they see my lvn experience and call me or email me for a lvn job. The thing is i didnt go back to school, and get my rn license to continue being a lvn.

Is anyone from california experiencing the same scenario? Im in the central valley and i can't relocate its just not possible.

I know California is horribly tight for even new grad RNs- many are moving out of state to get their 2+ years of experience. Have you had someone revamp your resume or practice interview skills with you? I would focus on those first, as well as re-visiting your nursing connections. Good luck!
