Will I get hired anytime soon?

Published

Hi, so Im new here but have heen reading posts for years. I graduated in May 2014 and passed nclex in June. Also in June i found out i was pregnant, and we also had a 5 year old at the time. Since I was in school since she was born i decided I'd put off finding a job for a little bit and dedicate my time to my kids for a little while. Fast forward the little guy is 2.5yo and I'm ready to go to work. I have been working as a private duty caregiver since before graduation and work almost everyday a couple hours. Ive been applying to jobs since Dec of 2016 but probably 8 in total. Ive put my resume on indeed and had a couple messages from homehealth agencies but thats not what I am interested in( constant driving, no guidance). Anyone have any advice or been in a similar situation. I need to step my game up I know. :/

Thanks for the advice but I don't think school nurse is right for me. I have a community college down the steet that offers a refresher course but its about 4,000$ and I still have about 20,000$ in student loans, I really dont want to add to that at this point. If someone told me hey you for sure need a refresher course and we'll hire you I would probably do it but not at this point. Ive been looking for conventions and open houses and I havent seen anything nearby which is weird since I live near Chicago.
