I am still applying to jobs and to no avail! The 27th will make it 1 whole year to the date that I have graduated as a FNP student and Sept will make it a year since I have been certified. I have been on interviews, contacted recruiters, called all physicians that I know, hooked up with all current ARNPs that I know, and revamped my CV. What gives?! Most jobs have passed me by because I only speak one language although I am working on learning others. Another factor is that I do not have experience and I keep getting the "I do not have time to train" phrase. I can't relocate either because of family dynamics and I am beginning to give up. My other classmates are not doing so well either. The managed to get into PT positions but the pay is horrible. Is this what advanced practice nursing all about? I didn't think it would be a field of roses but this is beginning to be nonsense. I have paper cuts on my hands from the amount of CV's I have mailed out. I'm hopeless.
