Hi I’m an International Medical Graduate working as a medical assistant for the time being. No I don’t have a medical assistant certificate but I am more than capable for the job. I asked my boss for a raise for $23. Currently working $21/hr and my coworker whose front desk is also getting pay the same. I have been working for 6 months and she has been working for almost 3 months. I work in Bristol, CT. I work front desk since I answer any phone call, schedule, EKG, PA, fix codes for labs. POVs?

That’s a tricky situation! It’s tough when you’re taking on extra responsibilities and not seeing that reflected in your pay. I think asking for $23 is reasonable given your experience.

At my current job when I was interviewing for it I asked for $25 with 10 years experience and they started me at $21. At 4 years with the company I’m just now what I asked for. In this area in Houston nobody wants to pay you a high amount even with experience. Now they are hiring MAs fresh out of school faster so they can pay them lower. I’ve went back to school because of this.

Should I have to constanly advocate for myself in order to ensure I'm receiving market comp?

Since then my raises have been pretty meager and looking around it seems like I could get a dramatic raise by leaving. Is this just how things are?
