Medical Assistant--Optometry office

An Optometric Assistant/technician is the "information gatherer" before the patient sees the doctor. They use instruments and document a LOT of information. Precision and attention to detail are essential. An ability to learn large amounts of information is required. Here are some requirements more difficult to describe:

1. Know that you will move/work All.Day.Long. This is not a job for anyone who gets easily overwhelmed or for anyone physically unable to be on their feet for 8-hour days.

2. Have an OVERLY positive attitude. You will meet all kinds of people in this work, and not all are happy. We love them all anyway, we SERVE them all anyway. If you get upset if someone is short or tense with you, this is not a job for you.

3. Be a team player. We are building a company based on communication and teamwork. If you don't like to ask for help or struggle with an overuse of the phrase..." that's not my job",...this is not the job for you.

4. Have a desire to grow both personally and professionally. When you are at work, we want you engaged, we want you excited to learn and grow. Anyone can push buttons and run reports... we want someone who believes they should never stop learning. If you want "easy" or "relaxed", this is not the job for you. We believe that service at its BEST is an active quality... it takes constant effort, which will never be easy but will be hugely rewarding.

5. Don't be dramatic. If you've been told you are a high-drama person... please don't apply.

This job is 5 days a week. The days may vary based on doctors schedules. Monday through Friday. No evenings, No weekends.
