I've heard of a job working for pet food companies As a dietician!! Is that possible?
Hi Richard. I'm going to throw this question out there for the audience.Has any one heard about dietitians working for pet food companies??
I graduated in December and passed my RD exam in March. Right now I’m working for two nutrition apps! One full time and one part time. I definitely never thought that’s where I’d be today. Part of me misses some of the clinical side of things, buuuut so far, I love what I do! Never let anyone tell you “community doesn’t pay” or “there are no jobs in community” - do what you love!!!! Thankfully, as an RD you have options 💕🙌
Hello! Can I ask which apps? I’m looking to branch out a bit. I currently consult in long-term care/SNF. :)
This is so helpful to hear. I am about to start my Dietetic Internship and have never really enjoyed the clinical side. I was scared that I made a huge mistake and rethought even going through with the internship. My goal is to work remote with a flexible enough schedule to travel while working. I still hope it’s possible, but we shall see. How have working for nutritional apps been? Were you remote? Thanks!
I'm an older student going back to school to become a RD, and I just want to thank you so much for your helpful info and guidance! There have been quite a few times that I've had doubts about whether I want to continue down this path only because I am older, but your videos are really encouraging. I am a personal trainer but have always had a passion for learning about nutrition, I just get nervous about the whole internship part. Anyway thanks again!
Thanks Tiffany, I wish you the best
I agree. I'm a non-traditional student struggling to make it through my program. My university makes it so difficult to due to limited classes offered in undergrad programs. I'm hoping to find encouragement and advise!!!!! I work a full-time 9-5 job and take classes over my lunch break, jesus take the wheel!
@@kaylahill5055 Can you transfer to another college/university that offers an approved dietetics program?
@@kaylahill5055 Also, are you working in say a healthcare institution or hospital that would provide support and sometimes tuition reimbursement benefits.
@@jodrew1845yep that’s what my friend and I are doing. We are going to a community college for our prerequisites and will transfer to a University once completed.
Another great video from my favorite Dietician! Love you and your videos Kim!!! Keep em coming.
Thank you Clare
Thank you for adding quality content on a topic that needs more answers!
You're welcome Rachel!
There are so many options for dietitians! It's so great!
I agree!!
I'm thinking of studying dietetics and your videos are so helpful :-))
I'm doing my undergrad to become a dietitian and your videos are so helpful. Thank you & please continue to make these videos!
I'm glad they are! Thank you for watching.
Brilliant post. I worked for a food service equipment manufacturer for 7 years and was surprised to learn that there was a registered dietitian who worked with the designers to assure that the equipment was useful for the end user. Totally fascinating profession, thanks.
Oh wow! I had no clue either. Thanks for that info Jo!
I know a dietitian that works at the FDA
Great video. I'm currently working on my dietetics degree now. I'm also a dietary cook for Baptist. It's so many options and paths to take. I'm still trying to figure things out.
Devin I have a special video coming out this week for my guy dietitians. stay tuned I think you will be interested!
Some other nontraditional roles for dietitians might be: telehealth. Doing all or part of the consultations over the phone or internet. Another fast growing area is dietitians in management roles, whether food service or in food companies. Restaurant consultant is another, helping with training on food allergies, food safety, and healthy menu planning as well as organizing the menu for maximum profit. I considered doing this at one point.
Thanks Robin
Thanks for the video! I earned a bachelor's of science degree in Cell & Molecular Biology, but would like to become a dietitian and am now applying to post-bach programs to complete the classes I need and earn a second bachelor's in dietetics prior to applying to internship programs or combined master's-internship program. Research dietitian sounds like a great option for me and I am also interested in sports, community and private practice nutrition.
Awesome, wish you the best!
Thank you!
Being an Agricultural Dietitian sounds so interesting!
Your videos are helping me sooo much!!!! I start college this fall and I plan to major in clinical nutrition. The particular program at my school will also allow me to register as a dietitian. I'm so exited!! What do you think about being a vegan registered dietitian??
Congrats! I'm a veagn R.D. and so far there has not been any issues.
Veganism for the win!!🌱🌱♥️♥️
Sending love to y’all!
thank you! applying to MS RD programs soon, and so glad to find your channel! would be really interested in hearing about salary and the highest paying types of RD jobs. xo
I am in college right now and studying nutrition and dietetics. I am planning to attend Balls state university or Ohio state university or Texas state university for Master's and Doctorate. BTW loved your video❤
Congrats to you!!
Hi Kim, can you make a video on Learning plan for 5 years recertification cycle/CEU's?
Yes Melinda! Thanks for the idea
Correctional healthcare dietitian!
Just made this my channel home👍
the best video im going to be a sport dietician thanks 😀😀
I have heard of Dietitians working in prisons! And they make a lot of money! That would be interesting 😊
Wow thats a good one Andrew. Thanks for sharing. I think the Eatright Guy here on YT works in the prison system as a RD
I am really curious about farm dieticians, but I can't find any information about how to get into it online - any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Try getting involved with the dairy counsel or agriculture council. I'm sure they have the proper links.
Hey Kim :) Just wanted to ask if you or anyone else know where to get information on practicing in the US as a RD, if you graduated with a Bsc. in Dietetics OUTSIDE of the US?
would appreciate any resources and information. xx
Hi Zainab. I am not certain. If I were you I would contact the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and speak to someone in their education department.
Hi Kim! I am currently in college and I originally wanted to become a sports nutritionist, but now it seems like everyone wants that so I'm not as interested anymore. I am interested in helping people who suffer from eating disorders and am wondering what job setting that would be? Your videos are so good and have been helping me figure out what I want to do.
Hmm I'm not too sure Sahmirah. I did find a very interesting article from a few dietitians experienced with ED let me know if this helps: www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/070111p26.shtml
I think it might be clinical if you work for an inpatient facility that specializes in eating disorders. There is a clinic near by me that I looked once for once I finish school and they have a couple of RDs that work with the doctors to create meal plans for the patients, among other things.
omglyssa Yeah! That's exactly what I want to do. If you don't mind, what is the place called?
Hello Kim:) great content! What do you think would be the best part time job for a nutrition student? I’m currently working full time in a non related field but starting a coordinated masters program in nutrition and dietetics in August.
Why are sports dietitians considered infamous?
I was using the terminology as a slang. I do not mean that they have a bad reputation, but rather they are SUPER popular and well-known for their line of work. Good Q!
Oh gotcha. I don't know much about them so I was curious. Thanks!
Hey Kim..Love your video.
I am watching your video fpr the very first time and loved it.
I am a student studying masters in nutrition and population health in Deakin University. I am looking for a part time job in my field.
Will you please help me in this?
Hi Shivani what specific help are you looking for?
Hi Kim! Im currently a student in college studying nutrition and dietetics. Im interested in working with either school aged children (like in a school system) or athletes one day... but I’m not sure what those type of jobs entail. Also I know it will soon be a requirement that RD’s have a masters degree. I plan to graduate with my bachelors in 2021 (I’m actually trying to graduate early in the year 2020 if possible). Assuming that i get into an internship program right away and Im working as an RD before the year 2024 does that mean I’ll be “grand-fathered in” and wont need to get my masters? I can barely afford college as it is, I dont think I can afford a masters. Im debating on even changing my entire career / college path (like going to PTA instead) if it means I’ll require a masters one day. Im really big into health and fitness so I know I’ll be happy as either an RD or a PTA, but the schooling is so different. I just dont know if I’m wasting my time or money for this education... Thanks girl, your videos have been so helpful for me I really appreciate all that you do.
Yes from my understanding you will be grandfathered in!
I hope whatever path you choose you will have clarity and he content.
@@KimRoseDietitian any info on spa dietician ?
Myia Garrett
Dear Myia, if you’re so interested in “Spa Dietitians”, why don’t you look it up on Google?
Hi Kim, as far as becoming a sports dietitian, does it require any extra courses to earn the credentials? Also the process...I've never heard of this so what would the hiring process be like to work with a main stream team?
Hi Arianna. Seeing I am not a sport's RD I do not know the concrete answers to your questions; however, I found a credible website from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics: www.scandpg.org/sports-nutrition/
Check out the link, I hope it helps.
Thanks, I appreciate it Kim!!
ANY INFO ON SPA DIETIANS
I'm not sure what spa diets are. Please enlighten me.
@@KimRoseDietitian I have worked as an LMT for 12 years. Thinking of becoming RD. Threre was a Registered Dietitian at my spa that would do consultations with customers & advise eating plans as well as supplements we had from metagenics. So certain spas that have nutrition the products would most likely be locations to get hired. Or a hospital based gym where they can advise plans but I'm sure that falls under "community" right?
Would working as a dietary aide be useful if I’m considering becoming a dietician? I have an interview for a position that doesn’t pay well but if it’s good experience I could sacrifice some things.
I think the dietary aides I work with get good experience but it all depends on how involved the dietitian is. You May learn a lot depending on the setup about food allergies, communicating, etc
Camarra Smith I also work as a diet tech and I think it would count for something especially since we’re in the health industry anyway so any knowledge you puck up would help and good luck on your interview
what would you suggest I do if I dont get an intership...should I continue school, go for a masters? work on majoring in something else? while I'm waiting for the next round
Sometimes there jobs in hospitals as a food service tech maybe you can apply for those until next year when you apply for internships. Getting a masters can be expensive and might increase your chances to get an internship but it's not guaranteed. If you do decide to get a masters do one that is coordinated so you do the classes and clinicals then when you graduate you can take the exam and become registered.
I actually made a video about this: ruclips.net/video/6k-oyiVKkvo/видео.html
ajaxmuse if you don't get matched the first round you can sit for the DTR exam and if you pass you can work as a DTR and build up experience in the field. before reapplying for a DI I believe but look into it just in case I'm wrong.
