[QUOTE="HereWeGoAgain, post: 45375, member: 3485"] My dtr completed a phlebotomy program, studied, did the exercises, did a 100-hour externship in a hospital, got her state certification -- and then never would apply for a job. Before she moved to Illinois with us, the school had placement assistance but she didn't like any of the referrals -- too far, not enough pay, lousy hours. After we moved we encouraged her to apply at doctor's offices, clinics, labs, and hospitals. I helped her with a professional looking resume. But she always found some excuse not to go job hunting. After a long enough time, she said she was not confident enough and needed to practice before she could apply anywhere. So wife suggested that she call around and see if anyone offers a refrsher/recertification class. She didn't think they did -- wouldn't know how to look them up -- would call the original program and see if they had a referral next week. At any rate it never happened. Her certification has now lapsed. She just couldn't face the prospect of having a good job and all that that entailed: managing her finances, keeping an apartment, being reliable and punctual.
