Why does this job appeal to you the most? What skills do you already possess that would help you to get this job? Identify skills you are still building or need more experience performing. Discuss options to sharpen or learn the skills you will need to gain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The job that I chose was Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). This job was the most appealing because you end your day relatively early,&nbsp; the schedule is predictable, Paid holidays, and an annual salary of $300,000-$350,000. I do not possess many skills for the job at this moment but the skills I will be working toward would be, Administer anesthesia with nasal intubation for full mouth dental implants in an office-based setting, Collaborating with surgeons and dentists to optimize, develop, and implement anesthesia plans, etc. These skills will come over time during college.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let\u2019s find your dream job!
