Below are some steps to help you find CNA work:

Complete Your Schooling

Be sure your schooling is up-to-date and that you take any refresher courses which may bring you up to speed on new techniques and equipment found in the industry today. This industry always has new developments and changes to the way things are done. You will need to bring yourself current with today's methods, especially if you have been out of the workforce for awhile.

Get Accredited

If you are not part of a CNA organization, then write any required exams and join your local group. Doing so will give you a dedication after your name as well as make you more respected in your field. It will show people that you are certified as someone who is skilled and knowledgeable as a CNA.

Gather Your Credentials

Gather together all your original documentation to prove you have graduated as a CNA. As well, gather any certificates for professional certification and any special achievements or awards you have received in this area of expertise. Make multiple copies of these documents to keep on hand should you be asked to show copies of your documents. Keep all your originals in a safety deposit box and keep copies for yourself in a folder so that they are readily available.

Gather References

Write down a short list of both personal and professional references that you would like to use. Think of people that can attest to your character as well as to your work ethic. Contact three people and request them to be used as references. Explain that they will be listed on your resume and a potential employer may contact them for a referral.

Prepare Your Resume

Put your resume together including your professional goal statement, educational history, professional accreditations, work history and references.

Begin the Job Search

Begin your CNA work hunt either online or by using the traditional methods of newspaper classified reading. The benefits of searching for work using a newspaper is that you will see at a glance if there is something available locally. Broaden your search for CNA work by using online search methods. You can simply use a Google search for CNA work and put your city location in the search term as well. You can also go to specific job search sites to do more detailed searches of their databases. Some job search sites will have a section where you can fill in your information as looking for work. Another option for looking for CNA work is to hire a placement agency. They will do all the legwork for you and keep you on record for when something becomes available. You can also contact the human resources department of hospitals in your area and ask if you can send your resume to be kept on file.

Applying for a CNA Job

Prepare a cover letter that is specific to the job you are applying for. Fax this along with your resume & references to the number supplied. If you are asked to mail it in, put all the information together in a nice presentation folder and mail it in that way.

The Interview

Think about what type of questions you would ask someone who was in your position applying for a CNA job. How would you answer the questions? Doing this preparation will put you in the right frame of mind for an interview.
