    I am about to graduate in May in MLS. Its a great profession to get into, my only issue is the pay isnt there for what you're expected to know in school.

      I’m considering a career in MLS and am trying to find some more information. How is the science work in MLS

      @omarnajera4015 It's a heavy science field. You'll be trained in Microbiology (bacteria, parasites, fungus), Hematology (Blood under microscope and testing to see how your blood cells look), Chemistry (Testing all the different hormones, proteins, and reactions in your blood), Blood bank (testing Blood compatability of donors to patients to help bleeding patients). Those are the big 4 but there's also Coagulation and Urinalysis. Depending on the size of your lab you'll either work all these departments or only 1 and it could have a lot of old school manual testing or automated lines and analyzers that do most the testing for you. It's a stable and fascinating job, my first year I'm starting out making $32.65 USD with a $9,000 sign on bonus after 12 months.

      The pay is determined by experience.

      @jeremymoore145 top end pay at my location is around $41-42 an hour which I think for the importance of the position and the intensity of the program isnt enough. Starting pay here is $29.11 per hour but some places only give $25 an hour starting which is a spit in the face.

      @@zbs8334 I think we on the same page here. I’ve seen new techs come out of school making 55 to 60k a year which is not all that good. 41$ a hour is a little over 85k a year and can be made with 15+ years of experience . Management gets more in a hospital setting. Pay also depends on the region of the country that you live in. I have a degree as a Medical Lab Scientist with 16 years of experience.
