So,
I am about to type up a résumé specifically for taking to all the veterinarians in my town. I know several of you have been or are vet techs. How hard was it for you to get your job?
I'm 21 years old and the only real FORMAL job I have in the pet field is a dog bathing job I had at PetSmart. The rest of my formal work history is retail.
However, I did work as a volunteer at a vet between ages 12-16 and when I was 19 for a little while. I doubt the vet has any record of it, though, as they have since changed locations and vets. Would that be a plus? I'm going to include it in my résumé. I also worked at a stable from ages 14-17. I'm going to include that as well. Not sure what references I could use... Any if you guys want to volunteer for the job? Lol!
And of course I foster as often as I can for rescues and helped run a rescue that shut down a few months ago. (The founder didn't want to do it anymore... She only lasted about 6 months.)
So yeah... How hard is it? Lol.
