Since the economy has been swaying, the employers are shooting for the 2007 and 2008 averages and not keeping with current times. I know that healthcare is a business even though we are taking care of patients and the hiring physician or entity will try to get a good provider at a cut rate. I find it frustrating that companies and offices are not even interviewing qualified candidates just because of how much they are asking for pay. Also, job search for a PA position is frustrating. I have found most job boards are too busy and have too much going on. I see that a group has tried to fix this by opening their own website http://www.medjobplanet.com I do hope that it will increase in popularity and make it a one stop shop for healthcare professionals.

Flexible hours is a major plus to most persons just entering the medical field. It’s amazing that the demand is not higher.
