What Is Going On?????

[NARCAN]

hello everyone!

i am writing because i am very concern and upset. i just got my license in november this year...obviosly i have no nursing experience except for the clinicals done at school/hospital. i have applied to many jobs, over 13 in total; even if it requires 1 year experience i still applied...but each one of them rejects me because i have no experiece as an lpn. what is going on??? how am i or anyone supposed to get a job or any experience if they wont even hire you/give you a chance even if they pay a little less....i do not know how else to promote myself to employers. i have gone personally, faxed, called etc....any sugestions, advises from any of you nurses and staff members???!!! its just fustrating because i want to work but no one wants to hire because no experience!!! :crash_com :angryfire

I was working as a CNA in the same place when I graduated from Nursing school. They also gave me a position as LPN. But only part time.I worked as a CNA the other hours. I was told by my advisor at nursing school that even though I was working as a CNA, I would still be held responsible as a nurse. The state said I was a LPN, and if something happened, I would be judged the same as a nurse. Plese move on if they can not give you a position you need.
