Desperate nurse looking for job!?

Hi everyone!


I am RGN with NMC and I have little experience.


After 8 months searching for job, I gave in a known hospital a successful interview. After that, none informed about the details of job, what must to do and how etc . Yes, of course I call them,several times and also I send them emails. When I said my name in the last call, they just hung up the phone!!


Anyway...


I m still looking for job right now, from nhs web site without results.(except from those hospitals that thanks me for my interest and wish me good luck with my next application!!!)


As for agency, none accept me without at least 1 or 2 years experience.


Any help?Any ideas?


Thank you reader!!

Perhaps you could try to find your two years experience elsewhere; like a nursing home, or clinic, or private home for the elderly. I know that some of these jobs will entail little more than cleaning soiled beds but it will get you your two years for the agency, and who knows, it may even lead to something better!

Reply:That is very odd that you are having a difficult time finding a job???? Nurses have the EASIEST time getting jobs because there is such demand. My nursing friends all the time - so I wonder if it is something you are saying or doing during the interview?????





Keep applying at all the hospitals, clinics and doctor's offices you can find. Check the Sunday papers, check online - I just can't believe you are still jobless????? Also, ask some of your friends and family on some advice about things you can change during your interview. They know your personality or appearance than any of us would know....
Reply:If you totally hounded them for details, you might have pushed too hard. If you were a total nuisance I'd probably have hung up on you too.








Keep looking, and try to think hard about the way you present yourself in interview.





Try to figure out what kind of personality and attitude you give off, and what you need to 'show' to your prospective employers.


(Read What colour is your parachute - it has some excellent stuff in there.)





Also, have people check over your CV and give you feedback.


After a year of unsuccessful job applications I realised I had a type on my CV, where I detailed my GSCEs.


(I'd just become blind to it, I scanned past it whenever I read the thing (I'm also slightly dyslexic)).


With that fixed, I was employed within 3 months!





Obviously this was completely retarded. People screening CVs usually have so many they're just looking for reasons to reject your application and thin the field they have to actually seriously consider. So being thorough in making sure you don't have any stupid errors is important.
