This is an online self-paced course for medical coders who are looking for their first job in the industry. It focuses on resume writing, networking on LinkedIn and interviewing skills. The course also focuses on keeping an open mind about the different types of jobs available to medical coders.
By the end of the course, you will have:
- An open mind about the different jobs you can do
- A completed resume
- Know the different types of jobs to apply to
- Know where to look for these jobs
- A completed LinkedIn profile
- At least 10 LinkedIn connections
- Know common interview questions and how to answer them
- You will be applying for jobs in the healthcare industry
There are 7 different modules containing editable files, links to articles and videos. These can be completed at your own pace but as a general guideline, it is recommended to complete the course in 3 months or less.
The course also has 1 group Zoom meeting per month (about 30 minutes). This is optional but it is recommended that you join if you can. During this time, you will get to know others taking the course and I can answer any questions you may have.
All students of this course are encouraged to join the
Career Catapult Community. This is an online group of medical coders and is a great way to network and get to know others in the field. So far there are about 125 members and more people are joining every day. Most people there are readers of my blog and I started this group as a way for everyone to connect.
I hope you'll join us!
