Is it a lost cause to apply to a Mck Knowledge Analyst role online through their website? Don’t know anyone who can refer me. Applying from D because role is in home state w/ no travel. Dad is sick.

I can't speak to the knowledge analyst role specifically but generally you're going to need something to get past the first round filter. If you're not from a big feeder school/firm then you're going to want to connect with someone from the company. Go on LinkedIn and reach out to people who went from D to Mck or people at Mck from your alma mater. Usually a conversation is enough and if they're hiring for your role then you'll usually hear from HR within a week of that conversation. Best of luck to you and I hope your father gets well soon.

also, was it a bad idea to include personal reason for wanting to leave current job after only 1 year? Obviously discussed career goals/fit as well, but want to explain why I’m looking to jump so early, because I know that can be a red flag...

Mck1: that makes me feel a bit better. Do you think a 3.5 undergraduate GPA in STEM major is disqualifying? I know Mck has tougher academic standards. I’m only 1.5 years out of school

Mck2: thank you for the useful advice. I think there may be 1-2 recent alums at Mck, will try to reach out to them

If you get the interview invite no one looks at your undergrad GPA, only the interview matters

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.

You are working on matters for other clients at all other times during the day. How much are you billing for Client A?

Hello everyone !
I just graduated and I have made it pass the third interview which was a two part working interview that I will receive compensation for. I have BS degree in healthcare professions and wanted to know if 40k is too low of salary to start off as a compliance officer for a pharmacy that provides discounted medications. My first 3 months will be training for my position but I will be paid the same. The job hasn’t offered me a dollar amount yet and I want to be best prepared.

Yesterday the HR replied that they can't match my expectation and thanks for applying.
