Posted on March 9, 2014 by PRN | 1 Comment
MedicalSchoolSuccess.com Recently Interviewed Career Coach, Physician Entrepreneur, And PRN Expert Panel Member Dr. Michelle Mudge-Riley, An Expert On Non-clinical Careers For Physicians And Physician Career Change. The Interview Covered Dr. Mudge-Riley’s Reasons For Considering a Non-clinical Career, Her Transition, And Her Reflections On Her Decision. Here Is a Brief Excerpt From The Interview
“In medical school and residency training, I saw a lot of unhappy and angry physicians. I realized I was starting to feel angry and unhappy with the culture of medicine. I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life feeling that way or subjecting all those around me to that. I was becoming a not-very-nice person.
I was also really confused. On top of everything else, I also really wanted to understand the “big picture” of healthcare and medicine, and I didn’t know exactly how to figure that out. I had no idea what else was out there, but I really wanted to find out. (I figured it was worth trying, at least.)
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
It was scary, that’s for sure. Most of my medical friends thought I was crazy and my family did too. But I was the only one who had to live my life and I couldn’t live for other people. The unhappiness motivated me — I just couldn’t live that way. I refused to be that way.”
