Hi all!
I hope that this topic hasn't been beaten to death... I did a search and couldn't find anything, so I'm throwing my questions out there.
What area of nursing do you do now, and what did you start out doing?
Was it difficult for you to find work?
I'm a bit more than half-way through school, and have been watching the papers for LPN jobs and I'm getting pretty discouraged that there aren't many jobs out there at all. Perhaps my area is different than most? I'm in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Also, I'm wondering kind of on a side note, if any of you are in charge of hiring, what you look for in a new nurse, and what is your facilities policy on hiring newly graduated nurses?
Okay, this got long. Sorry! Thanks for your responses!
