What a disappointment!!!!!!!!!

I have been working as an LPN for over 2 years in an acute care hospital on the med-surg floor! I, obviously, have plenty of experience from being in a med-surg floor. I graduated from the LPN-RN bridge program in May 2009 and just took boards and passed!! I have decided to look for other opportunites in the medical field.

I applied for an RN position in a clinic which stated a competitive salary for new grads so I went ahead and applied for the position. I got a call back and went for an interview. After 4 hours of my time completely wasted, all I end up finding out is that they were willing to pay me $2.00/hour more than what I make now as an LPN. My current job is offering me $6.00/hour more than what I make now!! Why is it that most positions always state "competitive pay" and in actuallity means different???.........................:confused:

    Any ad that says pay is "competitive" is advertising that they are going to pay on the low end of the scale. I have learned that through years of IT job searching.
