I have been searching and searching for employment. I have had so many doors shut, first "I need to be certified" even though I have 3 years REMOTE outpatient and trauma coding. Now, I’m certified I’m being told "You’ve been out of the hospital for too long." How does anyone get a job? I just want to work.

Having A Hard Time.
Hello all!
I’m newly certified as of August and I have applied to many positions and have heard nothing. I’ve heard the frustrations of other’s and have tried not to mimic but my faith is starting to lag. I am starting to regret this decision. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to get into the field I worked hard to get into and paid for. Does anyone have any suggestion?
Thanks.

Recent graduate with CPC having a hard time finding a job.
Hello, I graduated from Career Step in Medical Coding/Billing and have passed the CPC through AAPC. I am still having a hard time finding a job. I am in Central Wisconsin and unfortunately I haven’t been able to find anything in this area. I am looking mainly for a part-time position. I want to gain the experience needed so that eventually I can work from home. If anyone knows of any positions or could offer some help I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks, Nicole
