What are examples that show you are organized or detail oriented?


I know that my current position requires a lot of attention to detail and organization, I don't know how to succinctly describe it.

I work in a hospital with uninsured patients. I route their medical applications to diffrent agencies, depending on what program they are applying for. I organize the files with the required medical records, authorizations and other forms. I make sure that each form is filled out exactly as required so as to prevent delays in processing the application. I double check the forms completed by patients themselves for errors. I assign the apropriate codes to patient accounts to indicate status changes. I make sure the final disposition on patient accounts is correctly indicated between several different software programs. I note all actions taken on accounts in a shared automated account tracking program shared between office personnel.

Do these cut it as examples of organization?

You can be a totally disorganized person and do a job that requires alot of attention to detail to get things right. If you did this job without any mistakes in a year - then you would be considered to be strong with attention to detail. If people around you were always complaining that you missed this or that or that you forgot things then no. Some great examples of organization and attention to detail are bringing a notepad with you wherever you go and taking notes on what people are asking you to do and it's great to do that on a job interview. A person with good organization knows exactly where to find everything that they need to do their job perfectly and makes checklists for everything that they do and checks them off to make sure nothing is missed in getting things done. If you are the person people go to in order to correct the mistakes of others because they totally trust that you're going to get it right - then you are a detail oriented and organized person. In a job interview, using glasses and having a well kept hairdo always helps, along with a watch of course. Appearances are everything in a job interview. Nothing you can say will show that you are detail oriented better than a good brief real life example of something that happened where someone trusted you with something important because they knew you were going to get it right and you did.

Yes, the way your organize the files is definitely a sign that you are pretty organized and detail oriented. You could use that as a way to express your organization and attention to detail skills.

Good job.

well, with the med record on hand, you should check and assign code for the status change, then make sure the require forms for that changes are filled out and double check with the patient for errors, sign. Send the forms out to agencies, and note on the acct all of your action. Set a date to follow up on those forms see how they're progressing.

It not just your paperwork that shows organization. Your dress, manner, desk all outward appearance has a lot to do with it.
I work as an Organizer with clients.
Follow through has a lot to do with organization just filling out forms and filing them is not organized you are doing this out of habit and training. It would be your follow through your appearance.
