Am interested in a potential career change, been considering a dental assistant program in my area, and on a waitlist for hygienist program that has a two year wait. A friend in the dental field says places will train instead of going through a program and coming in with training, due to financial strain that sounds appealing, but wondered what others think. Located in Wisconsin if that makes a difference.

Happy that you are looking for a career change and I think it does sound appealing for sure. And when you finish your training, you are st least now have job security

So you are saying the training would be the better route, as far as job security? I could see places preferring someone with as opposed to without. Pharm tech was another I was considering.

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!

Hello, looking for supervisor positions in healthcare within NYC, I am looking to start ASAP. I have my Bachelors in Health Services Admin and Economics, 5 years of experience in the industry and I am currently working towards my PMP certification, as well as going for my MBA or MHA, depending on what program I can afford. I am currently located in Queens. Thank you!

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!
