    Find a recruiter who hires in the medical space. Surely there are positions in the medical field with your skills.

    Many jobs in medicine take specialized training, although there are plenty of non-medicine roles in the larger healthcare field.

    If you are looking for a clinical job (hands-on medical career), you'll need to start with formal education of some sort depending on the role.

    If you are looking to transition into the healthcare industry in an IT or business role, then you could look for related roles at a healthcare business or technology company.

    Good luck!

    I'm looking towards an administrative position. Working with Billing, Reporting/Analysis, Coordinator or Health Information Specialist.

    Hi, you need a transitioning resume. Send a connection request to me if you need help.

    How do I send a connections request? :)

    I was in the same boat some time ago so I tried an online career tarot reading at https://tarotatlas.com/career-reading during a really uncertain time in my life, and it ended up being a turning point. The online experts helped me realize I was holding onto a job that no longer aligned with my values. The cards pointed toward change, confidence, and new beginnings—and honestly, that message gave me the push I needed to start applying elsewhere.
