I have recently completed the course and an externship and do not have my first MT job yet.  I did very well in both classes and externship and was told by the program's administrator that I would make an very good MT.  A local clinic may have a job for me doing clerical work, but they are laying off 75% of their transcriptionists because they have recently made the switch to electronic medical records, and there are very limited openings for beginners, overall.  I have just started paying off an educational loan while still unemployed, and I am beginning to see opportunities for what I have struggled for just drift away, while I am being conceptualized into coder or some other job description by our industry's leadership.
