I worked as a recruiter for a company immediately after I graduated from undergrad. I left that job after 4 months, took a GRE prep class at a university, studied, took the GRE and applied to a master's program in cognitive neuroscience. I attended that program, worked as a researcher and as a psychometrist for a nearby medical school until I graduated. After I graduated, I worked as a corporate recruiter during the summer until I moved from Texas to Florida so that my husband could attend pharmacy school. I worked in a private neurology practice here in South Florida as a psychometrist...the money was sporadic, so I also worked in a customer service job for a call center until I applied for a Psy.D. program. I start that program in two days.
