We say Pif, Paf, Poof, in French, they all mean the same thing!

You English people and your lack of variety.

Heh, yeah. I love how the application requirements for many clearly entry-level positions are "at least three years of relevant work experience." Everyone knows it's BS though, so don't let that dissuade you from applying to anything.

Hopefully with experience, its easier. It took my forever to get my current job because I had no previous experience. I'm thinking about transferring to a different hospital, we'll see if it makes it any different.

I hear ya. I'm in the process of searching for a job myself, and it's a pain because of my relative lack of experience in a field that isn't food services (whoo for college jobs).

Oh man, I wish I would study in something food related, I'm getting so much experience in the domain these years.

Don't let the previous experience stuff bug you too much. Technically, the job I have right now "required" three years experience but I got it anyway.

Not looking forward to that. I can probably put it off another 6-7 years though.

Yeah, next city I'll live in will be terrible when it comes to jobs.

Population : 150k
Students : 50k

Hell no.

Yeah, the "required" experience, in part, seems to be a way to whittle down the field.

Totally been here. I spent 11 years in mainframe operations, went and got a degree (losing my job in the process), and then nobody touched me for a year after that. OK, not totally true, I did get an interview or two during that year (Data Entry for $8 an hour), but nobody would hire me. Then I spent a year in vocational training, STILL nobody would hire me, until I went out of my way to get a certification.

Just started on Monday. It's so nerve wracking now, though, I'm so afraid I'm going to lose this job after having been out for so long.
