Hello! I am a registered nurse and have been unable to find a job. I check everyday for new job postings and apply to anything I qualify for (I have no RN working experience). I have also brought my resume to all the little clinics and small businesses in the area desperatly trying to find a position. I have my ASN and wondering if it's worth it to get my BSN. I don't want to end up getting my BSN and being in the same exact position. Could anyone recommend a good major that a RN could transition too that has a higher chance of landing a job? Maybe PT or OT? Nobody wants to hire a new grad RN, I've applied to LTC, hospitals, clinics, home health, insurance companies, you name it! Any advice is appreciated.

Comment:
Before making a decision, you should probably do a more complete investigation of PT & OP. Entry into practice for a PT is Masters degree - you can become a PTA with a BS. There are fewer programs for these fields, and much more competitive than nursing to get into.PP is correct, new grads are getting jobs. If you are in a highly saturated area, a BSN may be more attractive to employers, but those grads are probably having a difficult time also. If relocation is possible, you may need to consider that option.
