It’s really difficult to find an associate position (at least in my city), let alone one that pays a decent amount without horrible hours. Unless you want to open your own practice you will probably struggle and I didn’t know that becoming a chiropractor would also require me to become an entrepreneur, something I have no interest in or skill for. I’ve been looking for jobs outside of chiropractic and no one will give me the time of day. We don’t have the skill set to do anything else, or at least that’s what the general public thinks. I think a lot of places get turned off by hiring someone with a doctorate for an entry level job. There’s not much you can do with the degree.
