Psychiatric Technician Careers: Recession-proof Jobs in Healthcare

[bellagirldee]

Fast forward to 2011 where there has been a hiring freeze since 2009. I have a relative who graduated the LPT program at Mt sac over a year ago, passed her state boards did a QAP and still has not gotten a job in a state prison, mental health or Dev.Center. Out of 30 graduates * half the class put in their apps to various state hospitals before graduating only* 2 people have gotten a st. job. * how sad* You're better off being a LVN, at lease you can work in a nursing home or go out of state.

@bellagirldee I graduate a couple of years ago and passed the boards....still looking. lol No job should be called recession proof. Made me wish I passed the program when they used to hire people. Even places like Coalinga that used to take an influx of people (as long as the people were interested in working and didn't mind working and living in the middle of nowhere) is hard to get hired at. You're right about being an LVN, at least they can work at any hospital setting.
