The whole point of going to PA school is to get a job WORKING as a PA. Helping people, saving lives, and generally making the world a better place.
What is the BEST way to find a job right of PA School? Making friends.
Seriously. Networking on rotations is probably THE best way to FIND and LAND a job. Especially when you’re right out of school and have zero experience. Although that’s the best way, there are loads of reasons why this won’t work for you:
– You’re not doing a rotation anywhere you’d like to work
– You’re moving across the country after PA school.
– You hated your stupid preceptors and never, ever want to work for those morons.
That list can go on and on.
The other piece of advice is that you should be using multiple avenues when looking for a job. Just using one technique is almost always a mistake.
What else can you do?
Job boards? Job boards are okay and should account for some of your search, but definitely not all of it. Job boards should make up less than 50% of your search for sure.
If you use job boards, there are some simple ways to boost you right up to the top of applicants rather than landing at the bottom of a massive pile of digital résumés. I’ll get to that in a minute.
Are there any other way of to get yourself that corner office with the shiny pressed long white coat?
Yup, and I’m going to tell you all about them. I’m going to tell you how to move to the top of the stacks of resumes and I’m going to show you how to look for job in a way that won’t even require a resume. It’s amazing and plenty of people in the PAER community have done it.
I know it works because I wrote about the techniques in the July and August 2018 issues of the Physician Assistant Exam Scholars Newsletter and I’ve been getting CRAZY feedback ever since. Feedback about people creating jobs to of thin air. Stories about people turning down excellent offers for even better offers.
Sadly, these issues have been collecting dust these many months. Every time I get an email telling me about another dream job landed, I feel compelled to release them again.
This last month I’ve been pushed over the edge and this very weekend, starting today, I’m going to make these two issues available as a package.
The “Get Your Dream Job as Fast and Start Getting Your Hands on the Money That You’ve Been Promised” package.
