For those of you who have read my previous posts about trying to crack into nurse training, I have finally done it!! I am now working in a paid full time job with my local vets :) After 5 years of trying to get a job with them, I decided to volunteer at an RSPCA clinic instead, and I met one of the practice partners for the vets where I work now (Premier Vets)!&nbsp; He offered me an interview and all the vets who I have worked with at the RSCPA who also work at Premier said they put in a good word for me!!</p> <p>anyway, just thought I would update you to say that it is possible to get into this career so dont ever give up :)</p> <p>xxxx</p> <div style="CLEAR:both;"></div> [/quote]</p> <p>Congrats hun, you have wanted this for so long, good luck!
