  • What if I have sent my resume and I see an interesting position listed on the Medi-Office "Current Position" web page?
    If you have already applied within the past three months, you can send us an e-mail expressing your interest in a particular position but please, do not telephone.  If it is longer than three months since you submitted your resume, please re-send
    it.
  • What qualifications do I need in order to apply?
    You need to have a professional presentation, excellent English skills, both written and oral and at least two years of medical office experience.  However, many of our positions will require significantly more experience.  You must be familiar with at least one medical billing programme and have good medical terminology.  In addition, it is assumed that you are competent in MS Word and using the Internet and e-mail.  A Medical Office Assistant certificate from an accredited institution is an asset but an equivalent combination of skills and experience will be considered.

    Yes, you can apply but you need to be aware that most of the positions of that we recruit for, are senior secretarial or management type openings, that require significant experience.  Very few of our clients request a new graduate.

  • Can I drop off my resume in person?
    No, we only accept e-mailed resumes.  Interviews are by appointment only.
  • If I do not hear anything after three months, can I re-apply?
    Yes.  Please ensure your resume is current, and updated if there are any material changes.
