Today marked the end of 8 months of studies in the Medical Assistant Course. I now need to move from Student Mode to Job Seeker Mode once again. I have mixed feelings about my "graduation". I really loved the teachers and fellow students as well as what I was learning. Working in the Medical Profession will give me a chance to pay back for what they do for millions of us!
If I didn't have to augment my income, I would have gone for a whole degree program. However, survival calls, so I'm planning my next steps. I'm very thankful for the amenities that this contest has given me, as it reminds one that we are on the right track.
I'm working on my strategy for the coming weeks/days and from the 2 interviews so far, I'm feeling excited and hopeful.
Congratulations on your graduation. Loved reading your journal on the main page, a nice surprise. I have no doubt you'll get a job you enjoy, and one that will help others. What a grand quest.
Thanks so much Karean; you too are an inspiration to all of us! Wow - a new pension too! I can't wait to land that new job that gets me closer to my dream..
thanks again for your kind comments.
I have to make a comment. It takes a lot to go to school, establish a career base, and compete in the work force when one is older. I know because I did the same. I can't believe that 10 years ago at 55 yo I finally took a full time job that fits my degree; then, at 67 I will be retiring with a substantial pension. One that I did not believe I would have. So, I send you my BLESSINGS AND CONGRATULATIONS to a job well done. Your life will be much sweeter.
