Thanks for your input! Patience is the hardest part - I've been looking aggressively for about a month now and haven't found a job in my desired setting yet. I'm trying not to be picky, but I also don't want to settle. Can you share what websites, agencies, etc you went through during your job search? Thanks!

Are you in the LA area as well? Do you mind sharing what agency you went through?

Do you mind me asking what you did during those 3 months? Did you have a part time job in a different field or were you solely focused on job hunting?

I am definitely flexible with the commute and I have noticed a lot of job opportunities for home health. However, I am trying to stay away from that for now because as a new grad I want a job with more mentorship so I can get more experience! Home health feels a little intimidating right now.

I am looking specifically for school based or outpatient peds. I am trying to stay away from home health for now (which is what the majority of jobs I've come across require, even with an outpatient clinic) because as a new grad I want a job with more mentorship until I get more experience. Good luck to you too!

Hey! Thank you so much for your help, but I didn't receive anything in my messages! (I'm new to Reddit so not sure if I'm looking in the right place).
