Hi everyone, I haven't posted in a while because I have been extremely unhappy and anxious lately. Feel like I gave up all hope on feeling better, getting a job, and improving my life. I guess you could say I am down in the dumps.
I have been applying for jobs since May and so far only 1 interview and many rejection letters. They either say I don't have enough experience, the job was given to someone else, or not interviewing yet. I am so frustrated with it all, I never thought it would be hard to get a job in this field. Where is the so called nursing shortage??
I have decided that hiding out at home and not socializing is only going to make things worse so I came back online to catch up with you all and hopefully get some support. I need to turn this around and be constructive. I'm not sure how I am going to do this for long because if I don't get a job very soon the internet will be gone along with the cable and telephone. Things are very tight financially right now, plus my living arrangements have become very uncomfortable and I am considering leaving my relationship *but* without a job I cannot afford a cardboard box to live in.
Thanks for listening,
Lisa

Hi Lisa! I'm new to this board but had to respond. But I might possibly be able to help with a nursing job. I'm saying possibly because my DH works at a nursing staff agency. Its a great place if you like to travel. I don't know where you are from, and I'm not 100% sure if they take out of state employees. Its located in Tontitown, Arkansas. I'm sure they do but like I said, I don't work there so I don't know. Go to www.therightsolutions.com and check it out. If you don't qualify, I'm sorry for getting your hopes up but I know how hard it is to find work. Good luck, and keep on trying. That perfect job is out there for you!
I hope this helps you!

Thanks Nikki,
I appreciate your input. I checked out the site and the openings in my state are quite a ways from here. I also have 3 children so traveling might not be the best fit ;) But I do plan to keep my options open and may give this a try if nothing local opens up.
Thanks so much.... ....Lisa
Your welcome but I feel bad that there isn't anything close to you. And since you do have kids, it probably would be a problem to travel. But they have sent people to Hawaii before! Must have been a nice sort of retreat for those nurses, LOL. I also don't know for a fact, but it might be a requirement to travel to other places than your home area. He's the IT Manager and the programmer of the company. Thats why I'm not very clear on all that they offer. But at least you have another option.
