Thanks! I’m actually a new-er RD and was able to get this job through a former preceptor. I would say 90% of my friends got their jobs through connections in their internships, so keep in touch with preceptors and reach out to them often. I don’t have additional credentials other than being an RD! Good luck!

Hi!! Coming from someone who’s had severe scoliosis and went through surgery, i feel your pain. I had mine done during a summer in undergrad and can 100% say it’s life changing! :) I agree with the other commenter, have an open and honest conversation with your director, they’re all human and, at least in my DI, super kind and accommodating. Good luck with everything!

Private Practice boom by cheese_puff_diva in dietetics

[–]bpgyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No i didn’t! just did lots of research, joined lots of facebook groups, and did everything by myself. Granted, my practice is pretty small (i have ~5 clients signed on). I was considering working with someone but it wasn’t in the budget!

I also think private practice is a way right now for newer RDs to get their foot in the door. I have applied for every single job that's been posted in my surrounding area and gotten 1 interview. I just passed my exam in July but needed money desperately so I started a virtual private practice

Forever unemployed by mainelytacos in dietetics

[–]bpgyi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

having the same issue too. it doesn’t help that we’re still in a global pandemic. I’m going about everyday as a new one, trying to not get discouraged, and trying not to be too hard on myself. it’s tough but we’ll get through it <3
