What positions does the lab hire?

While there are a lot of specialties in the laboratory field, the most common are:

  • Phlebotomist
  • Medical laboratory technician
  • Medical laboratory scientist

Other specialties include:

  • Histotechnologist
  • Pathologist
  • Cytotechnologist

Are there growth opportunities in the lab?

Yes, there are opportunities to either continue schooling to advance your career or become specialized in a certain subject while working on the job at St. Luke’s. For example, a medical laboratory technician would attend a two year program and be able to start working in the lab, but would also have the option to continue for two years to get a four year degree and become a medical laboratory scientist.

What do I need to do to work in the lab?

At St. Luke’s we hire phlebotomists with no experience and train them completely on-site. Many other lab technician positions require two to four-years of schooling through a specialty program. Locally, Lake Superior College offers a medical laboratory technician program.
