Temporary phlebotomy jobs?

nick in Oceanside, California said: maybe ill start doing heroin for a yr or 2 document it then i will have experience

Wow if you talk/think like that, maybe you don't need to be in the Healthcare field. Did you ever think about Volunteering somewhere? That's where you will gain experience until you get a paying job.

I am looking for a phlebotomy class in Winston-Salem, NC. I am trying to find one that can get me trained quickly. The community college here makes you take a CNA semester first, then the phlebotomy class...a total of a year.

I am a little concerned, after reading this forum, that it is difficult to find a job, but it sure looks like there are a lot of ads for phlebotomy positions around here ? PLEASE HELP ME ! THANKS

Completed phlebotomy school over a year ago have been trying to get a job since i got out NO Body will hire me...Super lame! If anyone in Seattle knows someone who is hiring those of us who cant get exp without a job please let me know!!!!

Try out PHLEBOTEK, they are a nationwide staffing company focuses on phlebotomy only.

www.phlebotek.com and apply with them just a suggestion

Thanks for the tip, Sam. I just finished my course in June, 2011 and have been looking for a part-time/PRN position. I just applied to PHLEBOTEK. Wish me luck!!

jonboy86 in Phoenix, Arizona said: kep plugging away people! i just got hired on at the local hospital after elven months of applying to every opening i could find. once you get the coveted interview make sure your the best of the best and dont forget to let them know it!

Way to go! Thanks for the encouraging word. I believe that determination to do what you love, and truly knowing all you need to know are the key to finding that first position. I just completed my externship three weeks ago. Have an interview on Friday with a big medical group. I hope it works out for me, but if it doesn't I will keep my positive attitude and keep studying to keep all of the skills and knowledge that I have attained. I'm also going to take the certification exam with the AMT as soon as I get my official transcripts and am able to. Good luck to you all!

There 3 schools near me all of them say that they would help with job placement after you finish school.One of them is in partnership with elderly homes.I wonder if they really will!!!

I live in In Ohio. I went to Larock Academy. I was also told it would be no problem to get a job. They posted positions everyday , however they never mentioned that no one would hire a new grad. If anyone knows where I can get started it would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to say I finally have mey first interview at a clinic. Only took 4 years! Definitely not worth it.

I completed my national certification in June, 2011 and still can't find a position. Even the Red Cross won't hire me because they want full-time and I am employed in another job and too close to retirement to change now. I am considering asking about doing an internship somewhere to get the experience. Has anyone else tried this with any luck?

I am in the same position another job and close to retirement. I volunteer at a free clinic as a phlebotomist for them a couple of times of month to keep my hand in it. After I retire I plan on doing it on a more full time paid position at another facility.

Hi Everyone,

I know the Phleb Schools tell you that jobs are plenty BUT thats if you have the experience & even then they are difficult to obtain. If your really serious about Phlebotomy, then I suggest that you find a Free Clinic somewhere & volunteer your time to gain the experience that you need. Its a win win situation...you gain experience & provide a service that is needed for a good cause. I'm a Phleb & it took me 2 years to get a position. I also continue to volunteer at 2 free clinics here in my area. Good Luck Everyone!

Try www.indeed.com

C in Columbus, Ohio said: a good place to start working and get exp. is providing service to nursing home labs. there are companies who require you drive to nursing homes and do lab work then drive the specimens back to the lab. I am now a nuc tech and I put myself through school doing that. got alot of experience too.

What are the names of these companies?
