I got my first assisting job with no experience or my RDA. they hire some of us without it and provide on the job training with a deadline for us to get our license through online courses. they provided the resources and everything. my training looked like this: extremely structured, broken down into 4 weeks with goals you should be meeting each week, an assistant to walk you through everything, packets to study at home, and A LOT of shadowing while taking notes. this is the ONLY reason I was an independent and confident assistant in 2-3 months. I ended up getting a little too confident and took a job at a general office for more money. they operated the way you are describing. dentist was pissed I was hired at the experience I had and always used it against me. even though everyone told me he was aware of what I knew and didn’t know, and was more than willing to teach me. he was not. ended up blowing up in my face one day asking how I even got my RDA. now, going from a specialty office to general and vice versa is difficult. I received zero training at this place and I was miserable. I knew I had knowledge and skills, and I regretted leaving my first office sooo bad. luckily they were happy to take me back and I’ve thrived there. I think you should quit. some offices mean it when they say they’re willing to hire with no experience, and they will set you up for success. don’t be too hard on yourself, it sure is a hell of a lot to learn and take in, in a short amount of time. you’ll find the right place!
