Hey all,
I am starting my internship next month (sweet!) and am far away from home; internship=Texas home=NJ. I want to go back to the east coast and settle down/start practicing there.
I am interested in college counseling centers and will be completing my internship at one. Generally, they seem to go from August 1st-July 31st. This is concerning to me when I forward-think about post-docs. I intend to continue college counseling; does this mean I will be ending in Texas on July 31st and starting on the east coast on August 1st? That is literally impossible, considering transit, etc.
Are post-docs more flexible? The only option I can think of is to hoard my vacation days and leave my internship a few days early, which I also don't feel great about. I imagine I am not the only person to have ever had this conundrum so I am hoping the nice people of student doctor can help =)
