Two items here:

1.) RochesterWorks! is useless, useless, useless!

Based upon my personal experiences and the experiences of others with whom I've spoken.

AND based upon a recently posted article and its responses on this Topix forum.

2.) IF you're REALLY an RN and you can't find a job AND you need RochesterDOESN'TWorks! to help you, there is something drastically wrong!

A degreed / skilled RN should be able to find a GOOD paying job faster than I can sing "I'm A Lumberjack!"

[josie]

news10 needs helping finding a better title for this article...hehehe

[sick of it]

Do you want fries with that sir??

Unfortunately, a "degreed / skilled RN" is in many cases expected to expect a higher rate of pay than newer candidates to most employers, hence they are less likely to get hired in this economy.

I currently work for just-above minimum wage at a "fast food" establishment. I almost wasn't hired because I am "over qualified". Like I told my boss at the interview "Look, I need a job, don't fault me for my resume.". Luckily he listened and I'm making money rather than sponging off the system or my family.

Don't knock it 'til you try it, Dingleberries. It's rough out there.

Did you work full time before your new job? Then you paid INTO the unemployment system, as did your employer. Possibly for YEARS. Therefore, it is NOT sponging off the system to take what you need, keep looking for a job, and volunteer where you can in the meantime. It's a good way to network, shows that you care, and looks great on your resume.

Have you tried trafficing? There isn't a need for any certificates or degrees. There aren't any benefits packages, but the pay is great(so I've heard). Also you wouldn't have to worry about paying for others to buy homes, cars, food or for big businuess' to get your tax dollars.Hee Hee! Look into it. Hey , you never know it just might be the right career path for you. LOL!
