This field has become over saturated with new grads with no experience. Most employers are looking for coders with at least 2 years experience and a certification.

It is general advice to look elsewhere in the field, ie, medical records, data entry, billing, or front desk. Gain medical experience and familiarize yourself with ICD, CPT and Reimbursement, after you get your required experience, leverage it for a coding job. I started at front desk, worked my way up to medical data entry and then coding.

Good Luck
