If so, how many of you are struggling to find jobs? If you do work, how often are you working?
I am unemployed. I graduated in June 2006, put out 200+ resumes/applications and nothing. I even applied at Walmart, Meijer, and other places to get some kind of work, but no one has called me yet. It's frustrating.
I have filled in here and there at two different offices but that isn't steady work, although I am very appreciative of whatever I can get.
The economy in Michigan stinks right now. Our state has 11 or 12 dental hygiene schools already, and another one is going to be open soon. Since Granholm got re-elected, I am considering moving out of state. I would much rather stay here in the state, for I like it a lot, have family here, etc. but sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
I think that if my college told me that the job market in this state was crummy for dental hygienists, I would have gone to school to be an RN instead, but I do LOVE dentistry a lot.

Jeez, move east! I can't believe there are so many DH schools out there. They've closed left and right in the Philly area.
Check http://www.monster.com and see if there are any listings in the Philadelphia area.
