4th year veterinary student - would love some input on my plans. My boyfriend is applying to school in May I am graduating with my DVM. I selected Maine for my NAVLE and license bc that's where his school would be but he won't know if he's accepted til August, which puts my start date for moving in that range. Since my license would for Maine, I plan to work here in Kansas as a veterinary assistant in the meantime. Any advice?

IIRC you don't need a license to work as a vet assistant, unless you want to get AVA-certified which requires you to get an exam. You can probably find a clinic or shelter to work in until your vet license arrives.

I don't think you'll run into any problems working as a vet assistant in a different state before you move to Maine. The challenge might be if you don't end up in Maine and you end up in a different state. But even still, i think the process is pretty similar state to state and it shouldn't be too difficult to move your license elsewhere

Yes agreed with the above. You should make sure that he gets accepted there before selecting a state to get you license

You CAN be that leader that people want to work with. 1st, self assessment is required. Be honest: As a leader,have you engaged in/accepted Attribution Bias with a dash of gender &/or race bias? (See the pic) This is something we all need to be aware of as we lead our teams, provide performance feedback, & model the behaviors we'd like to see more of on our teams. Be on the lookout for Attribution Bias in yourself & on your team. It's a hindrance to creating a high-performing, inclusive culture.

And much longer will it take before my F&F process is completed and I get my outstanding due and my experience certificate? Pls advice.
