[Histonet] certified/uncertified

[Whitaker, Bonnie]

Hi Nancy,

If someone is certification eligible, we hire them into the same position (for us it's a C2 level Histotechnologist) and they have one year to get certified. The pay would be the bottom off the range, with a raise when they obtain their certification.  If they don't have the requisite experience, we hire them in as a C1.

Hello-
Looking for current practices with hiring:
if you were to hire a person with BS that has already been trained in histology but is not certified - would they be hired at same rate as certified tech?
would they be expected to get certified?
It's a slippery slope.......
Thanks
