    I’m a recent university graduate who has been working in different entry positions since early high school. I thought a health Bachelors was going to finally allow me to obtain stable, relevant employment but it has done none of that so far: Healthcare institutions only care if you’re a nurse and the one corporate job I got is substition-based, so I can only work if someone calls off which is highly inconsistent and unsustainable.

    I feel like my only option is to apply for grad school in a medical profession pipeline, but I’m nervous about asking for letters of recommendation.

    Most relevant job apps either deny me after a few days or simply do not respond. Even research or lab jobs no call me after a while, regardless if I follow up by contacting them directly.

    Edit: Additionally, I can’t even get unemployment as my last job was PRN during my intense year of classes and they need you to have been working near full-time hours for a number of weeks to get it.
