RE: [Histonet] Uncertified Histotechs

I would look to the pharmaceutical industry, or industry in general, if they 
are hiring.  I believe they are more willing to hire without certification than 
a hospital.

Is getting a job as an uncertified histotech a thing of the past? I have a 
friend who has been a very skilled histotech for many years and they have been 
looking for a job for about a year now. Is this due to bad interviewing or a 
lack of certification? I'm curious to see if this has happened to other people. 
They have applied at hospitals and bigger labs such as Caris. Im not asking for 
a job lead for them I'm just more curious if certification has become a 
prerequisite now.

If you have pharmaceutical, some veterinary and research areas in universities 
or even some private labs are not as strict.  In the future we may all face the 
challenge of having a certification as a requirement and we should be ready it. 
 We have seen the field change and my only issue is getting ASCP, CLIA and NSH 
to assist us in getting recognition for what we do and schools to educate the 
next generations.
