Ah, there is the rub. I have tried that route and been told that I need at least a year of office experience. Either i am over qualified or under qualified. I haven’t given up looking, but it’s getting to the point where I just want to throw up my hands.
I would definitely keep trying that route. Maybe there are classes at a local community college, or a reputable university with online programs, on office management? Anything that would show your commitment would put you at an advantage.
Also, many health insurers have case manager positions, or even phone lines where members can call (or internet chat) to have routine medical questions answered by a medical professional. It seems like such jobs would be options.
Whatever you do, don’t give up! There really are many options today for people with disabilities that did not exist 10-15 years ago.
