Outlook

[ninjamommy]

My outlook and attitude positively suck right now. A friend of mine went to a nursing job fair. This was what she learned. There is no nursing shortage in Chicago area. If you actually want to find a job, you're better off moving somewhere else for 18 months and then Coming back with experience. Because you won't be hired otherwise.

I will probably

Do you have any former professors/instructors at school that can help you get an 'in' somewhere? That might be your best bet..

I have exhausted every contact I have so far. A call is scheduled for tomorrow with one of the nursing faculty to discuss the situation. I applied for around 20 jobs today. At some point, I'm hoping someone somewhere sees something they like. I'm so scared of not finding something.

And, at the end of the day, I know I will be good at this. I love being a nurse. I love being that person that helps improve outcomes for a patient. And I know in the core of my being this is something that I am meant to do, even part time. My clinical experiences with patients were so fantastic. This is me. I am a nurse.

How about southern Wisconsin, how far away is that for you?
