You’ll collaborate with skilled teams, uphold safety and compliance, and continuously refine processes that drive timely, reliable results. This is more than a job—it’s an opportunity to influence patient care, grow your technical expertise, and build a diverse professional portfolio. And while you advance professionally, you’ll also enjoy the beauty of Pennsylvania: State College’s energetic campus atmosphere, nearby hiking trails and state parks, the scenic countryside, and a rich mix of history and culture that makes this state feel like a welcoming home away from home.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this assignment, you’ll perform essential laboratory duties—accessioning and processing specimens, running hematology, chemistry, microbiology, and molecular assays as appropriate, and ensuring accurate results through rigorous quality control and instrument maintenance. You’ll document findings, participate in proficiency testing, and adhere to CLIA, CAP, and institutional policies. You’ll have mentorship and exposure to varied platforms, enabling you to broaden your skill set and advance within the specialty of medical laboratory science. The package is designed to reward your expertise: weekly pay ranging from $1,814 to $1,932, with guaranteed 40 hours per week, plus a signing bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities for extended assignments based on performance and project needs. You’ll receive comprehensive support from our travel team, including 24/7 assistance, travel logistics, onboarding, and ongoing check-ins to ensure you feel secure and supported throughout the journey. Please note that pay ranges and guaranteed hours are estimates and may vary; final terms will be confirmed during the hiring process.
