I
've been working as a receptionist in a nursing home for 6 yrs. and it was ok at first cause I was a high school kid but now I'm searching for a better paying job in the last 6 yrs I've only gotten a 0.57 cent raise. I'm way under paid I've seen receptionist positions that start you out at $10 an hour. I've been applying to lots of places that only require 2 yrs experience and I have 6 and just can't seem to get hired anywhere and it's so aggravating especially since me and my boyfriend are about to move into a new apt. and I need to take more responsibility it's so aggravating I just want to scream but instead I continue to pray that I will find a better job

 | Posted Sep 1st, 2007 at 11:10PM An do not cease from prayers. Your turn will come, doors will open up for you, but in the mean time do not stress yourself out. I know it is easier said than done. Can you also try doing a course while you search, because the market is rough and these employers are sometimes looking to see what have you improved on academically since you entered the work force. |
 | Posted Oct 10th, 2007 at 7:54PM The best way to find another clerical job is to sign up with a temporary service who can place you while evaluating your experience and you can set the rate of pay of the jobs you accept and determine what days you will work. I was offered serveral full time postions while doing this and only accepted the choice positions. Calling them each day to ask what is available is also a good idea if assignments are sporadic. |
