Just curious.

I am in the Tampa area, and the only employers I see are Sears, Schneider National, and United Healthcare. I think for Sears I could apply at a store, and they are the same postings I have seen on other sites that were posted MONTHS ago. Same exact jobs on another site. Schneider I don't think I have never seen any of their trucks in my area and typing it in Google shows their closest office is near my parents a few hours away towards Orlando. I'm not seeing a lot of jobs I could qualify for with United Health Care because I am not an RN or qualified to be a Vice President Medical Management Operations, and a Director of Clinical Operations which ironically both requires a nursing degree.

I don't think a nurse separating from the military is going to be on these sites looking for jobs, and/or having a tough time finding any job when they separate from the military. They are welcome company on these sites sure, but looking for work? Doubtful.

True but it's not enough to pay the bills fully and it's easier to get a better job when you have a job regardless of how crappy the current job is.

What are you talking about, you 1798 for BAH, then you can apply for fafsa and get an additional 5000 broken down into semesters. Then your book stipen, which if you rent you can pocket a majority of it. If you go full time to school with all those benefits you can make about 26,000 for that year. Even if you get a starting job somewhere your gonna start off at 30 to 35. A difference of 7 to 8 grand. Im just giving you my experience, since Aug i will be getting my bachelors in may, just 9 months after separation, then i will start my masters program in june, will take me 10 months to finish. From start to finish im right at about 20 months to get a masters. I wish i could say its easy, but it isn't, but one thing ive found is that 9 times out of 10 the easy way usually isnt the way.
