Got my Cisco networking certs, network+ and security+. But the main thing that got me the job was that not a lot of people in the networking world like to configure VOIP, I'm not exactly a pro at it, but I'm not afraid of it. That what got me the job. Only bad thing is that if thing's continue to become easier for companies to configure, I might have to go into information security.

A+ is a good start, you learn the equipment you are working with, and basic troubleshooting. You might want to pick up a CCNA book something by Sybex, they are pretty good. Get a good network simulator, and start configuring. I would work on getting some VOIP training, just because a lot of people hate VOIP. Security+ Networking+ are all good ways to go. If you want to do network security check out eccouncil.org

>What's the daily work like?
That's a hard, broad question to answer. I now work at a small / medium sized clinic (which means no ER, no night shift, and fewer complex tests performed.) I did on-the-job training at a large hospital, though.

As far as with my co-workers, I'm an MLT in the military, so it's all different. All the reservists say in the civilian world, people are far more at each other's throats, because the job can become very demanding and there's a growing shortage of lab techs, both MLT and MT (aka CLS). Good employment opportunities, I hear.

As far as dealing with doctors, it's very bipolar. I've been asked what test to order for a patient if they thought they had a certain parasitic infection, what a test result means, and other misc questions the MDs don't know. Then again, the moment you make a tiny mistake, they're up your ass in a heartbeat.

Unless you're in California, there's not much difference between MLT and MT/CLS, except that, of course, you're paid more (on average). Advice, if possible, get associate MLT, and then get MT/CLS, because you will have more experience sooner.

>I was like WAT.jpg I'm thinking of getting the scientist (bachelor's version)
I hate that they changed the name to "Scientist". That's a different story.
