I’m located in WA and have been working as a certified medical assistant and front office specialist for the same organization and have 10-11 years experience. I graduated with my BS in Healthcare Management last September and I’m currently fast tracking my MBA in Healthcare Management. I have been applying for leadership roles over the last year and haven’t made any headway. I’m looking for some advice on actually moving into a role utilizing my degree.I currently make $25.80, with a raise soon

I’m in a super similar boat as you. I was an lpn though and I feel like that might be causing role confusion in many of my applications and so far two job roles. I did do the “indeed review” for I think like $20 and they tell you some changes to make to your resume to try to tailor to the job you want. I’ve definitely gotten more calls back but nothing close to what I was hoping for. Just here to say you’re not alone !

Thank you! I did the recommended corrections for my resume and changed up my LinkedIn profile from my school’s career counselor, but I’m still not getting much of a difference. I’ve been watching YouTube videos on how to get a job after getting this degree and almost all of them recommend getting a position as a receptionist and moving up, but already work as a split role doing CMA and front office… I did my degree to break out of those roles, it’s been very disheartening. I’m sorry it’s been the same for you too.

I think it was more to get your foot in the door of the healthcare industry. I use excel daily. What PMP certifications would you recommend?

Post some interesting facts about MCity Infosys

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
