Currently seeking an entry level office job in the DC metro area.

I'm open to just about anything and I do have limited experience with IT. I have no certs though, just a few semesters of Cisco CCNA and personal experience. I'm preferably looking to get into anything that involves writing/research/analysis. I would love to get my foot in the door doing technical writing if anyone knows of anything.

Job Openings in Washington, DC

I work for a healthcare research, consulting, and strategy firm headquartered in Washington DC with offices in London, San Francisco, Austin, Nashville, Chicago, India, and others on the way.

Right now my division, Strategic Research, is conducting a recruitment drive to fill positions lost due to anticipated summer exit for grad school. If you're interested, feel free to send me an email at david.gaffin (at) gmail.com or gchat me if you'd like more information, and I'd be happy to submit your resume through our employee referral program.

definitely just applied for that Associate Director of Community Engagement position. there is no way any other company would think I'm qualified, but hey, that requirements section says I am!

I've got a BA in Psychology and Masters in Industrial/Organizational Psychology. The job search has not been friendly to me with the only interview I have upcoming being a temp agency. I'd like to eventually get into management consulting, but that's difficult to get into so I'd work my way up the ladder. HR, org development positions, something like that I would love to do. I've got a couple of HR internships under my belt, my latest in a large hospital center.

Looking to stay around the Houston area, but willing to relocate if advancement and/or salary is good enough (preferably another big city; hate the small towns). Hell, I'll even take an internship in Houston if I can get my feet wet in consulting.

Email me. You can find my contact info/job info a couple of pages back. We're a consulting company for the healthcare industry, and have a team that focuses exclusively on human resource challenges for hospitals that I think you'd be perfect for. It is, however, in Washington DC.

EDIT: Forgot one of the most important parts. While Epic offers fantastic pay for an entry-level position, the training that you receive while there is worth much more to health systems and consultants. You will have a 1 year non-compete when you leave Epic, but your first gig after the grace period is guaranteed to bring you well over 100k/yr. As soon as you finish certifications you will start to get headhunted on LinkedIn and other similar websites.

My company steals people from Epic left and right, so this is true. But we don't pay them nearly that much. They get to do pretty much the same job for a slight pay raise, but get to leave Wisconsin.

Experience:
My CS experience is mostly academic at this point. I have supported myself the last 5 years by playing online poker while living abroad. While people may prefer to see work experience, I can assure you what I did is very telling of competence. Most people who play poker lose money in the long run (I heard 85% and that sounds about right), while I was able make a decent living off of it. The poker world is too narrow to plan a future on, and too volatile right now with government crackdowns, so I've decided it's time to move on.

Just some friendly advice here: I wouldn't try to defend a half-decade jaunt into gambling that is now untenable because of law enforcement as "very telling of competence". Instead it sounds telling of risky decision-making and ethical equivocation. That's not the impression you want to give potential employers, and it certainly doesn't merit more than a passing mention as a hobby on your CV (unless you're applying to work for an online poker website, or something). Also, don't diminish your CS experience as "mostly academic". Instead, try to embellish it more with project examples and the like, e.g. if you've ever created a website for yourself or a friend you can go ahead and call yourself a "Freelance Web Developer" and immediately sound more credible.

Job Opening

Bay Area, CA

I work at a small medical practice just outside of San Francisco and am posting on behalf of the owners. The office recently changed hands right before I was hired and the previous owners were old school, as in everything was done on paper. Up until a week ago there wasn't a single computer in the building. I'm not a lawyer but the paper-only system was definitely unethical if not outright illegal; who knows the effect of what I can only assume were many mistakes and clerical errors.

I don't have a technical background so this post might be a bit vague but we need someone with a computer science background to come in and essentially create and set up everything. Patient databases, an appointment check-in interface, networking, hell, they don't even have a website. The position would basically be Computer Person in the eyes of the owners.

The job would be freelance work for the first few months while everything is implemented and tested, and afterwards it would be a salaried position where you'd be on call for when problems arise but won't have to come into the office every day. Basic IT stuff.

PM for details, being the most tech literate in the office I'll try to clarify what is needed as best I can.

You'll probably want to add that you need someone who understands HIPAA, understands who falls under and how to meet obligations for meaningful use, et al. Patient medical record and appointment systems are serious business, much more so than just digitization.

I am not that person.
