Q&A with Dr. Richie

Dear Dr. Richie,

I have been out of the workforce since 2001, when I had to quit work to care for my severely injured husband.  Several years later, we divorced and I transferred my skills from court recording to medical transcription.  I received my diploma in medical transcription in December of 2007 and I haven't been able to secure employment since then because no one is willing to hire me because I don't have experience.  Catch-22 - how can I get experience if no one will hire me?  What do you recommend?

Thank you.

Nancy
