Hello Ehab!
I agree with the other two posters, getting your foot in the medical coding world without any medical experience will be very difficult. At least in the US job market; you state you are looking for work in UAE, perhaps the job market is different there. However, based on the experiences and other coder comments around here, I would highly recommend you start getting some medical office experience as soon as you can. Still apply for medical coding, but realistically take front desk, patient registration, billing, claims, etc job which will prepare you for a career in medical coding.
Medical coding is not an entry level position because of the complexity of the ever changing coding world. I am hearing reports of new coders whose instructors are promising jobs right out of school. Unless the instructors are hiring all of their students, I believe they are being dishonest and misleading. Medical coding can be a very rich and rewarding career, but there are a few steps you need to take before you get there. You also write that you graduated in December of 2019, meaning you have not worked as a coder for 4 months. If I was the hiring manager and saw a candidate with a CPC-A without any coding experience, and then another CPC-A but with a few years of medical office experience, I would likely pick the candidate with medical office experience. I know finding a job can be hard and very time consuming, however if you're serious about medical coding you may have to take a round about way to that goal by starting at an entry level medical office position, and then work your way up to medical coder.
Good luck!
