You see those job postings, when you’re like “I’m almost there, but not quite”…there enough to apply? I do, but I’m always too scared to apply. How do you muster up the courage to apply for a job you are just shy of being qualified for? Like you know if given the opportunity, you can fulfill all responsibilities within that role…

I just applied recently to a job as a chiropractor’s assistant. Do I have experience? No absolutely not. But what I do have is customer service, multitasking, I did however take a CNA class in high school. But i don’t know how to schedule patients, or anything. I am a quick learner. In my opinion, anybody can be trained to do dang near anything. So, so far I’ve had 2 interviews and a working interview tomorrow for the chiropractor’s assistant job. I’m scared to death honestly, I want to succeed so badly because my current job I’ve worked for almost 10 years, I’m burnt out and I need something new. I think sometimes you just need to be like okay, the worst they can say is no. But sometimes a job or employer will take a chance, and hire to train you. Applying is the easy part, it’s getting a yes that’s the hard part. Just have a little faith in yourself and try until you succeed.

I needed this! I have to be confident that the skills I do have will help me be successful in this new position, even if it’s very different from what I’m doing now. Even if I don’t have the exact skills they’re looking for, I will always remain receptive to training and learning. Best of luck, I hope you get the position!

Always just apply! If you think it might work! Apply!
