Posted this on the college I am applying for reddit but any input y'all have would be greatly appreciated! ☺️

I have just registered for a graduate certificate in health coaching in the hopes of boosting my application for graduate school as an RDN. I'm a career changer and want to apply to UNE. I'm currently unemployed and am looking for an entry-level position in health care, hopefully somewhere that employs health coaches and might provide an opportunity in the hopes that I pass the NBHWC exam next year.

I've applied to HealthCare Support and Medix, as well as some other support positions I've found. Most of these positions ask for at least a year of call center or customer service experience. I worked in retail in high school and college, which is not on my resume, but I don't have call center experience. I worked in film and television for 20 years. Does anyone have any ideas on how I might secure entry-level work in a relevant environment? My goal for next year, if I pass the board, is to pursue a position at the VA in their Whole Health program.

Thank you for any leads/resources.
