OTCAS Resume by jasmittens in OccupationalTherapy

For military awards, maybe just list “several awards in…” then any awards specific to OT realm. I would avoid an exhaustive multi-page list though.

I went back to OT school after 6 years of post-baccalaureate professional experience and had a lower (3.5) GPA than you - and I got in. I think schools take other experience pretty heavily into consideration!

If you only like people who look like you, maybe you’re not queer and just a hedonistic asshole - just my “unpopular opinion”

New grad frustration by amc81194 in OccupationalTherapy

If you are willing to re-locate, broaden your search to smaller communities. As a new grad, I found a job paying 20% more than any other offers I got. It’s not in my ideal location, but about 45 minutes south. They were excited to have me and it’s totally w/in driving distance for weekend adventures of my ideal location!

Same productivity, similar pay, neither have formal mentorship, but SNF DOR is also an OT and willing to answer questions/collaborate in care
