I had this same issue. I also graduated in December. I received an offer yesterday and the posting for this position said experience required but applied anyway and still got the job. Also I called Swedish Covanent HR and asked if they hire new grads since all of their positions said experience required and she said they do, and to apply for any positions I'm interested in. So apparently we're supposed to know to still apply for positions even when it says exp req.?? I bet they say that to decrease the volume of applicants, and we both fell for it:) So apply anyways! Its a frustrating process, keep pressing on

I don't know if any of you other recent grads are experiencing this, but it seems like every position that's posted out there is looking for at least a year if not more of experience. How are new grads supposed to find jobs? I graduated in December and I'm still looking. I would say only 20% of my graduating class is currently working and that is because they all had PCT positions during school. I've applied at every hospital within 50 miles and nursing homes as well. I was actually told I was going to be hired for a position at the end of one of my interviews and then two weeks later I received the auto-reply reject letter from the recruiting department. I'm getting so frustrated.
Is anyone else having this same experience?
