thank you guys, i am really thankful to the mercy of GOD,
my first advice is : keep fighting your battle to the end!
--------------------------------------
I sent around 500 emails asking for research position or as a volunteer position in research.
one of the 500 ppl replied : i do not have any opening this year or the next 10 years for you.
anther one replied: i am sorry i have just retired, best of luck.
hundreds of them ignored my email.
then I got this position by chance, i sent an email expecting another rejection but i was given an appointment and interview then the position.
My advice:
write a good cv, you can lie or add things to it to make look fine. i do not care. just make it look that you are interested and you are a hardworking person.(you can go to website called indeed and find resume fits your career).
send a good email of three(only three) lines saying:
1)my name is...., 2)i am a medical grad.3) i am interested.4) please allow me a personal interview.
search the closest medical school or hospital for people or doctors who are doing research, send each one of the a personal email, ask for an interview then ask for a VOLUNTEER position.
many of researchers need your efforts but due to their hospital roles you need to go through more complicated procedure to get the volunteer experience.
IF POSSIBLE: read and know everything about someone who is doing basic research in the nearest medical school or hospital then go in person holding your cv around lunch time. tell them your story. some people will find this rude to go without an appointment but some find it prominent and initiative. i did it couple of times and it was fine.
