Carrington College

The most challenging, rewarding experience I could ever hope for. Thank you Carrington College!!

This is the first time that I have run across this page so I thought I would leave my opinion. My teacher was actually a very good teacher. She had high expectations of her student and she was a very particular grader. My problems started when It was time to interact with the career services department. I found out that the way they "help" you get a job is by helping you make sure your resume looks professional enough. A few months after I had graduated they had a job fair with some big name medical groups that I was not able to attend. When I asked my counselor for the names of the groups involved she said " Well, they are actually extern sites so it really would not be worth it"
I could not believe she had said that. What I was hearing was that they were having this huge "job"
fair that would only benefit the providers involved get free help for a 3 month period from all of their students that were completing their courses.

I should have know better, I had attended a medical secretary course in 1991 that was just as bad where placement was concerned. They offered life time placement but when I needed help finding another job they kept giving me the run around until I finally gave up.

It is pretty sad that these schools offer something that they are not able to provide. People go into their courses excited and hopeful only to be disappointed in the end.
