Now this was back in the days of Guns N Roses (not Wine and Roses!), or before, (I got my first PC experience in-office transcription, it was an APPLE IIe, which is a DINOSAUR circa 1985....my very first jobs were on IBM Selectrics, how's that for technology? Anyway, I had tons of in-office and clinic, had graduated from a locally prestigious program, had worked for years as a Med Tech, and I had to really beat the bushes and push my way into the door of a hospital; most hospitals want experienced only, are not willing to train, but then, how do you get the experience (the training programs in acute care did not count). I finally found a desperate Diagnostic Imaging supervisor who had learned on the job 40 years earlier, and she took me under her wing. Then, on after a while, I wangled my way into the Acute Care HIS pool for coverage and learned tons there part-time, working lots of overtime....this was how it went with me, sometimes you have to truly sell yourself and your abilities, be super confident, tell them you will sit down and transcribe anything they want for an interview, and if you do well, and if they have the manpower, you just might make it in! All the very best to you, please e-mail me anytime, I am pulling for you!!!! |
Well, here is how it went with me...sm - CindiRI
