Job Opportunities on the Mississippi Gulf Coast?

I'm currently about to begin pre-nursing curriculum at my local community college in Alabama, however I plan to apply to the MGCCC-JD nursing program (ADN) in Gulfport, MS for Fall 2016 (I'm originally from the area). I plan to go back for my BSN once I've finished the program & am working as an RN.

My question is: how is the job market in the area right now? Are recent nursing grads able to find employment?

Also, if anyone could give me some insight as to what pay per hour is for CNA, LPN, and RN for the area, I'd really appreciate it
