I'm applying for jobs to gain clinical exposure like crazy. I've checked a few of my application statuses and it says that I'm qualified but I may or may not be contacted for an interview. I have not been contacted yet being that I've just recieved my CPR certification and being that I have very little to back up my reasoning on working in a clinical setting.
I use the same old "I'm a Biology student taking a semester off to gain experience in a hospital, clinic, or assisted living facility." I do lie and say "My career goal is to become a Physician Assistant". Reason being is that I don't want an interviewing manager see me and look at me like I wouldn't stand a chance of being a doctor. I also include that I am CPR certified, but that's about all.
What else should I include in my cover letter? I really want to sell myself as an asset to the facility or institution.
