I graduated last year as a registered nurse. All of the positions advertised require 12 months experience. I have applied at agencies but they all say their clients require 12 months experience. So no job without experience...no experience without a job I feel like I wasted years of my life getting a degree in a field that everyone says we have a have a shortage in.

note: I know that some student applied for graduate positions and got them. I moved state and once I became eligible for computer job matching the jobs were filled.

Thanks for asking

I kept applying everywhere that takes grads. Finally I got a place at a place were a grad left. I finished my glad year last month. I start my Master of Nursing along with my perioperative position at the Women's Hospital next Monday.
