Anthonia Orji Thefew that I was told about are just the tip of whats out there. Pathologist assistants make about 80-90k and most colleges only hire lab scientists with experience. You can be a preventative maintenance tech (which from what i was told from my instructor) that you could make 100k a year, an application specialist for one of the big companies (siemens pay better, sysmex, etc.) you teach lab personnel how to work the machines 80-120k, traveling lab techs make good money (about 60-70k; more than or equal to MLS/CLS/MT), you can travel to other countries and inspect other lab instruments and processing which is also 80-100k, and right now i am planning on doing a cytotechnology program which cytologists make 65-75k PLUS a bonus since they are so scarce. Thats only the ones i can remember i was told about. Its TRULY an underrated field. Also if you want to take it a step further if you had the time and money, you could become a DCLS (doctor of clinical lab science) and yes its real and brand new BUT they are looking for experience and not fresh graduates. There are so many opportunities and options.
Would it be easier to go to other countries with this career for work. I’m a US student that loves Iceland currently studying for MLT if I were to learn Icelandic would it be easier to move there as an MLT with this career?
Getting my bachelors in biochemistry right now. I’m so glad I started at community, as I’m finishing all my chemistry, biology, physics and math with $0.00 debt. About to transfer soon and I couldn’t be happier and more excited to work in a lab!!! Favorite thing to do is gel electrophoresis or spectrometry. Titrations are awesome too. But then again farming cultures sounds good too, but the fridges are so loud! Ahhh I can’t decide
Passion Art biology is very heavy on reading so the best advice I can give you is to try and picture things with drawings to better layout how certain processes might work together move toward. Best of luck
Hi! Can you tell what are other classes are required before you transfer, other than those you mentioned? And how long is the program where you plan to transfer?
Rezi 21 it depends on your major really. The best advice I can give you is to check in with your counselor. They will plan out your entire schedule and help guide you.
Currently graduating with my BS in Biology next week. Got interviewed today for lab tech position. I hope to work as a lab tech during this gap year before I apply to medical school! Cheers.
how exciting! congrats on the third interview! i'm also a lab tech and i filmed a "come to work with me" vlog so maybe that'll help you get a sense of what the job is like. Good luck!!!
wished i saw this video BEFORE i got a job as a clinical research coordinator and lab technician HAHAH i filmed a COME TO WORK W/ ME vlog so it might be a helpful video too to get to know what it's like to work in this field :)
@@peaori prolly 6 figures. If you're a lab supervisor at Harvard they pay 6 figures. You also could be a director of a lab making that much. You can make a lot but it's good to look at job openings that ask for a PhD and see what it states as the starting salary. : )
pablo mccarty you’ll be hired on similarly to this guy. Of course I recommend you get an internship or apprenticeship while you are in school to better your odds of getting a job quicker. The key is to gain experience and continue to find jobs that can teach and pay you more. Best of luck
It's useless if you're trying to be a lab tech. If you wanna be a lab tech with an associates degree then you have to have gone thru the MLT program and be certified by ASCP or another accrediting agency. However if you have a bachelors in biology, SOME hospitals hire those people without being certified as an MT.
Start looking for co op/internship programs, and do classes that require lab. Once you go through a process in lab safe the protocols and what you learned. That way you can put it on a resume. That’s how I got my research assistant job (basically a lab technician). There is a difference between lab technician and medical lab technician just FYI. Most places require a certification program for a medical lab technician.
lab technician is an associates degree (i'm in that), and lab technologist is a bachelors degree. I think normally L. technologists usually start as a L. tech .
I don’t know how long it takes but I am almost certain this man has one of the nerdiest voices I’ve ever heard. 9/10 chance he got atomic wedgies as a child.
Degree is really all that matters. Jobs can’t see you’re transcripts. It doesn’t matter if it takes you 8 years to get a bachelors or 2 years, the paper doesn’t say much. Think of it like a diploma... I recommend you intern or do a job study while you’re in school. Experience is great!
I passed microbiology with exams that actually got more than 100% on multiple exams. Even so it wasnt for me. Microbiology was fun. If you have drive and love for it than go for it no matter what grade u get initially.
Hello.. m doing chemical laboratory analysis PG diploma in Canada. I have done masters in chemistry from india my back home. Please suggest me how can i get the job in Canada. Anyone please help me this, i would b so thankful to that person. I really want to do my field job. If anyone knows any job related to my study plzz let me know. Thank you so much... hope i'll get expected answer
They dont tell you that a lab tech associates degree can lead to other careers that dont require a bachelors that pay more than 50k and up to 120k.
Leon Wellz what are those? I’m currently in school for my associates in medical lab tech

I love his honesty
this is an awesome career.. I really want to get into this industry! im doing an apprenticeship in this awesome career

It's 2022, I was just offered an entry level lab tech position at MIT for 60,000 a year, so ask for more money
how much can one earn with a PHD in biotech

@@lydiahiksan1232 could a phd in pathology with a 5 years experience as a medical/clinical lab scientist also give you a 6 figure salary
@@peaori I think at that point you're a med tech or could go for a med tech licensure which can be $80,000 per year

How is that even possible?😱.
I guess it depends on the State or location?
I love the "s" sound
Amazing! Thanks a lot
47k a year at MIT? What a ripoff.
With a regular job you can make 60k or more a year lmao
Lol i hear 3 7 000 a year.
Theres something endearing about him... cute! 😘😛😜
keep up the good work.

He look like yo Daddy 🤣🤣
he looks way older than 23
I’m sorry but there is no way he’s 23. I can see 43 being his real age.

That's the oldest 23-year-old I've ever seen in my life. Bro's at least 30. Bro lied about his age.
As a lab technician do u draw blood..too .???
I don't think so, phlebotomists are the ones who usually draw blood
Smaller hospitals with a lab sometimes have the med techs draw blood too
getting paid below median income. nice. rather work at walmart with no degree.
That pay sucks
Victor P. It’s not that bad being that you only need an AAS for it.
Psh that pay is dope af, son.
its about the national average, but I wouldn't say the pay is dope at all
Why are you so greedy... not all occupations only about money !
