One of many jobless new grads

Employment

New grad radiation therapist, horrible job market nationwide. Huge oversupply of new grads, mostly fault of the schools pump out too many grads. Even experienced talent have a hard time to finding work. Smaller hospitals closing or consolidating means net loss of jobs. I suspect that patient numbers are down because of lack of insurance. Forgoing early detection and preventative care will lead to more advanced cases.

Considering getting out of healthcare, it's in turmoil with govt reform. Expect reimbursements to be cut, more work for less pay. Don't do healthcare if you want to make a living. You don't get compensated for the TLC you have to put into the job.
