The Doctor’s Crossing Carpe Diem Podcast

When you’re exploring nonclinical jobs, one of the very first hurdles is often the recruiter screening call.

You’ll learn what recruiters are really looking for, how to connect your story to their needs, and the simple but powerful ways you can build a bridge that sets you apart as a strong candidate. This isn’t about rattling off your CV or giving “perfect” answers. It’s about understanding the recruiter’s perspective, showing authentic interest, and coming across as both capable and collaborative. By the end, you’ll feel much more confident heading into that first call and know how to approach it with professionalism and ease.

Have you ever wondered what it really takes to pivot into a completely new career—especially when you don’t fit the traditional mold? In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Michelle Mudge-Riley, a physician who took a bold leap from career coaching into the pharmaceutical world. Her story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to follow your curiosity and explore what else is possible.

The mindset shift that helped her overcome fear and finally hit “send” on those messages. How she reframed her background to land roles — even without the “right” experience.
