Dear List,
I am a senior bioengineering student at the Universtiy
of Pittsburgh, and have become very interested in the
prosthetics and orthotics field. I have been looking
for a job in the Chicago area with O&P companies, just
to gain some experience. However it seems as if it is
very difficult to get hired without certification. I
was planning on getting my certification at
Northwestern, but they would like for applicants to
have some field experience. So I'm sort of stuck! I
was just wondering, in general, if it is possible to
work at an O&P firm before getting certified or if I
should just plan on applying to school first. Thanks
for your time.
