I have an MBA in Healthcare Management, and I was also frustrated by the number of positions that required a Nursing degree. I was able to find jobs to apply to, but I always went straight to the job requirements when reading job posts to not waste time on positions that required an RN. It looks like it is a trend in the industry to require it in many positions. I was able to secure a position within a Behavioral Health hospital just recently, but many of the staff have RN's but no behavioral health experience. Doesn't make much sense to me. I don't really have any advice, other than to hang in there and have faith that something will come your way.
