Where can I go? I'm dying for a job. Willing to travel anywhere in the country.

Geisinger in Danville or Wilkes-Barre, PA was hiring as of about 2 weeks ago. You should check if they're still hiring. The job seems good, just in the middle of nowhere. Also you can try Rite Aid in South Jersey (like Ocean City/Cape May area) or Eastern Shore MD or Vermont.
Wilkes-Barre, PA isn't exactly the middle of nowhere.
It is compared to Philly/NYC, and I was more referring to Danville. But I think the job that they called me about actually is in WB, so that's not so bad.
Oh yeah, compared to NYC, it's nothing. I like it though, its a college town. My aunt and uncle live there. Uncle is a big wig over at their VA.

"bozo pharmd" lives up to his name. have you considered the great state of Alaska?
I like the way you think... keep sending all the new grads to Alaska, one way tickets of course
free igloo?
No job prospects are one thing, but GPA shouldn't matter too much, I would think.
Oh, if he's a pharmacist (or married to one) I may have met him. They make a really big deal in that place about people who know the applicant not being able to participate in any part of the application process for that applicant. I know one of their current residents and he told me that they didnt want him to participate in the interview, and the other resident showed me everything from the resident's perspective (and I guess evaluated me).
If you're still looking for a job, I believe Geisinger is a clinical/staff hybrid. If you like Wilkes-Barre, it's worth checking out.
GPA should matter to some extent. We don't want people out in the field and being in the media for incompetence and making everyone else look bad.
Having a high GPA does not necessarily mean you will have the ability to apply the knowledge in the field. There are still students out there who kill themselves to get straight A's yet spend no time actually gaining hands-on experience other than clinical rotations.
