Recruiters told Dr. Reyhan Ertekin the same thing. As a fellow with no experience and an IMG, just take the first job that comes to you. Do not ask for anything. Be grateful you have a job at all. She came to me. Inside of Next Level Freedom we created customized scripts for her. We supported her through the in person interviews, the emails, the salary discussions. She created TEN dream job offers. A raise of over $100,000 over what the recruited predicted. That’s millions more for her family. As a breadwinner that mattered.  And she still gets home by 5PM. Excellent work done. Patient care focused. And hours to be with family, go for 4 walks a week, run around the yard with her adorable 2 year old. In This Episode You Get: ◆ How she turned her family's non-negotiables into actual terms in her job offer  ◆ How she created 10 dream job offers instead of settling for the first one a recruiter handed her, even as a fellow ◆ How she created a raise of over $100,000+ of what the recruiters predicted. As a breadwinner this matters. ◆ How she structures her schedule to be home by 5PM, even as a fellow, even as the newest hire   For these exact frameworks, join my free, live masterclass series July 28th, July 29th, and July 30th where you get the exact process of cutting back to part-time hours at your full-time doctor salary in under 90 days.
