"I just finished school to become certified as a medical transcriptionist. Although I may decide to continue my education later, I don't think that is something I am ready to commit to at this time."

"I love being a medical transcriptionist. I don't have any plans of going back to school in the foreseeable future. However, if I were to ever entertain the idea, I believe I would like to stay within the administrative side of the medical field so that I can work in an office type setting."

Many employers offer opportunities for their employees to return to school to get an advanced degree or to become certified in a particular area. Wanting to go back to school is not something that will likely disqualify you from employment. Rather, it gives the interviewer a chance to see what interests you. Share your thoughts about returning to school/training.

"I have considered going back to school a few times before, but have never taken the step. If I were offered an opportunity to go back to school, while still being able to work, I may consider it again. Much of my reservation has been that I did not want to sacrifice my job to go to school. I would not want to leave the medical field, but may consider something more hands-on, such as a nurse or therapist."
