Vantaggi
Overall, this is a great company, and you'll have the opportunity to work with a number of different specialties, ranging from primary care to cardiology. If you are interested in going into the medical field, this is a great way to get face-to-face time with patients and learn the ins and outs before applying to medical school. -Great opportunities to work in the field -Opportunities to move up quickly -You'll be ahead of most people on your applications -Your managers often want what's best for you, and in my experience they are easy to talk to and approach when you need something. -Great experience that can help you later in life. A lot of what you learn you can apply to keeping yourself, friends, and family healthy in the future. -The providers that you work with are usually open to teaching you about their field, and love to answer questions to bring more people in. -Hours are flexible, as a lot of us are currently college students
Svantaggi
-You have to, HAVE TO, be good with computers, be fast at typing, quick on your feet, and quick to adapt. This job is a lot of standing and a lot of sitting, but when you work you rarely have a lot of time per patient; you could be seeing anywhere from 3-30 patients in a 4-8 hour day. -It's best to have some medical knowledge before applying, as there isn't a whole lot of focus on it during training, so much as learning how to fill out a note. -This is a minimum wage job and the hours aren't always consistent. If you're really motivated to work, management can find the hours for you. You sign a 6 month contract when accepting the job, so you have to be able to commit.
