Veterinary Technician Schools

My friend called me the other day and was wondering if she could get a job at the clinic I work at.  In these hard financial times more and more people are contacting us wondering if there are any veterinary assistant or veterinary technician positions available.  Here is what I told my friend and it might be able to help you to find a veterinary technician position.

First of all most positions are not advertised, they are by word of mouth.  Because of this if you want to jump on the competition you have to be proactive.

Start by making a list of all the veterinary clinics in your area.  Then send them a resume with a cover letter telling them that you are available for full-time or part-time work.

Since a lot of veterinary clinics are very busy the postings for a new position is this usually are not done right away.  Use is to your advantage and be more proactive.

If you want to be more proactive go out and hand deliver your resume to each vet clinic.

In being proactive in this manner gives you a huge advantage over other people looking for the same position because you get there first and you have essentially eliminated the competition because the job has not been advertised yet.

So in today’s economy if you’re looking for a veterinary technician position be more proactive and put yourself out there.
