At least if you do land a job at a hospital, you'll already be in position to move up to nurse once you finish school

Go to sites like Indeed and CareerBuilder to look up open positions

Best Advice StopShort

This is what most do while in school if you have time to work.
Or look into a nurse aid volunteer program that hires.
Ask your schools advisor.

One piece of advice.....stop getting your body inked.

First impression to a hiring professional is that you're a hood rat with a thug boyfriend

This is good advice unless your career aspirations are to be a bartender, dancer or hooker. Stop getting tattoos.

Actually, bartending you can make six figures a year. Take the certification class, hours are outside of nursing school. It's an ideal job. I'm in recovery, otherwise I would do it
