Re: I lost my back office position . . .

Hey...I would keep your head up. I just graduated in December and am scheduled to take the certification exam through the AAMA February 8th. Believe me, I feel the same way. I feel like I got cheated out of an education and that (things you WERE doing..I was never even taught or not taught more than once or properly), so yes it is scary. My college is a well known college and accredited, but they seem to care about other programs more than the MA. I have been looking also, it is hard to with no transportation right now. I was told to apply at this one local hospital downtown which I heard pays good but this transportaton thing right now really stinks. I wish you the best of luck, and hopefully things work themselves out for you, me and everyone else. Maybe you will be happy there or maybe the job for you will come.

Re: I lost my back office position . . .

Try again, it sounds like you just weren't a good fit for that office.

Your Professional Title/Credentials: CMA (AAMA)

Are You Still In School? nope

Are You Working? yep
