This is the longest I've gone without a job. Are healthcare employers flexible about breaks in clinical work history, especially for professionals who took family or mental health leave? It doesn't seem like they are because I don't see why else I can't even get ONE interview. What's the reality of this??

The pandemic normalized career pauses. Be upfront and frame it as a period of personal development or caregiving, but I understand the frustration when you aren't even getting a chance to explain. GOod luck

Lets be honest the pandemic really messed up everything haha

Same thing here, struggling for past 8 months without a position.

Is that something you can mention on the resume so they are aware?

Get a PRN/ agency gig. It doesn't matter if u work 1 day a week or 1 day per month- it still counts as employment and will fill the gaps in the résumé.

Same here. it's beyond frustrating. I have 8 years of clinical experience and I have a terminal nursing degree and yet..*crickets* I picked up a PRN role in the mean time but it really sucks receiving multiple rejection emails for positions you are highly qualified to perform. It really sucks and when I come here to these posts, I don't feel so alone with my application experience. There's so many "although your resume and experience is impressive, we went with another candidate" emails I can take.

My coworker, who was my friend for a long time, has been lying to me, throwing me under the bus, and taking credit for my work and ideas. I have done more and worked harder than him but he was promoted. He failed a new client big time and I was asked to step in and save the relationship which I did in a big way. Why do I have to work so hard every day while he gets away with scraping by and plagiarizing? How do you deal with a coworker like that?

I have a looming sense of self hatred. I take medication I workout and do all the things to feel good, but it’s just stuck there. Constantly thinking I’m trash, in a bad person, etc. Feeling guilty for things idek if I should feel guilty about. This is a privileged problem and I know it’s minuscule to compared to the actual struggles of so many people in the US and abroad. Just wondering if anyone has felt this as well and if so, how do you get rid of that self hatred?

it feels like every survey about working from home is (poorly) designed to answer the useless question "would you rather work from home or from the office." I submit that the set of people who prefers to have only one of those two options, always and forever, is the null set. which means it DOES NOT MATTER because the correct answer is always going to be "make both possible." you're welcome, HR departments everywhere.
