I am doing alright. I also have a close-knit bunch of friends in my Bible study that pray with me about life and the search for work and the everyday challenges that come along. The longer I am without work, the more I cling to my faith in God.

Human Resource Manager

I have been unemployed for over six months now. I have applied to everything and anything. I had six interviews so far but I still have not been able to land a position. I have also tried applying to lesser positions, but I think I'm not getting any calls back because I am overqualified. I just want to get back to work as I am going through my savings and unemployment ran out a month ago. I'm looking to step down from my role as HR and would take any admin job at this point. Every industry says they are fighting for staff, but I don't see that from my end.

It is affecting my mental health due to the uncertainty of the future and being that no one wants to provide or nurture opportunities in my passionate field. Most entry level jobs are wanting a bachelor degree and paying a little meager paycheck. How can you survive in this day and age on that is beyond me! I just want a job where the environment is good and I enjoy being there for 8 hours a day. I don't need the work politics. I don't need it at all! It is affecting my mental health but I am trying to take it day by day. All I can do! Hopefully and fingers crossed I find something that I love even if the pay isn't great it would be great to not to worry or fixate on this. Thank you for asking. Mental Health is a part of overall health! Let's all be aware of that. Thank you again for asking such an important question.

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!

Been feeling spread too thin lately but I don’t know whats typical. Curious what others do. And would you mind sharing whether you’re a junior, midlevel, partner, etc??

I realize sheer number of cases doesn’t tell the whole story… obviously you can be buried on one massive case. I’m finding it hard to jump back and forth between everything I have going on right now, though, but I don’t know if the answer is to just deal with it.
