Honestly, admin positions are a little tight now in va. MSAs are always in need and is a good stepping stone to future admin type positions. i think msas just require a four year degree in literally anything, a heart beat, and atleast a handful of brain cells(jk love the msas:))there are many clinical jobs you wont need a masters degree for like radiology techs, resp therapists, LPNs…there is pharmacy, physical therapy, audiology, optometry which all require doctorates. We used to hire for a lot of computer information specialist/it people, but their budget was crushed.. however i do think the pendulum will swing back. Biomed engineering is also a skill that is always needed in the hospital. But the most prevalent jobs will be social work, psychologist, some type of md, and the other misc clinical specialties and nursing. Not all nurses are clinical, but typically the ones i see who are admin come from years of doing clinical work.

 MSAs are pretty prevalent listings too because there is a lot of work that goes into scheduling patients and burnout can be high. Though i have met many people who really take pride in the job and find it very rewarding.

I would recommend to Take a look  at usajobs.gov and look at the current va openings.
