I registered for Everest University in Jacksonville, Florida back in 2007. I just was recently released from jail for a battery charge My administrator Mr. Dean assisited me with filling out for my legal aid. During the process I asked Mr. Dean with me being upfront with my record will be be able to work in the Medical field as billing and coding. He ensured me that I should not have a problem, so I continued with the process/ mid ways they had an opening come up to work in the office as an administrator when I applied they told me that they could not hire me for that position due to my record. So I went back to Mr. Dean puzzled how am I to get a job in a healthcare facility through you but I can't get an office job due to my background. Mr. Dean assured me again everything would be good. Sometimes teachers will be late, or we will jump from one study from the next, not really getting a full story of what we should be doing. Whwn it ca,e down to my externship they sent me to work for a billing and coding dept in one of the hospitals when i got there the person who was over my Externship Ms. Valencia first thing ca,e out her mouth I don't know why they keep sending externs when you have not even the basics of what you need to know for this position, so after 2 weeks of trainig I asked Ms. Valencia do she think I can interview for the position she said I would like to, but they should have been honest with a background felony of battery they should not even signed you up for this position because of your background. So I explained what was said and they couldn't tell me anything but keep applying to jobs. Need to say I never got hired just debt.
