Dear Clinical Laboratory Manager:

I am seeking for Clinical Laboratory Cytotehcnologist and Histologist at SC. As an ASCP certified Cytotechnologist and CAP pap proficiency test (thin Prep and Sure Path certification) certificate, with 5 years’ experience of cytology and an ASCP certified Histotechnologist with 5 years’ experience, In addition I am experienced Molecular Technologist. I am seeking to pursue my long-term personal and professional goal of a challenging career as a Cytotechnologist and Histotechnologist within a hospital environment or a clinical reference laboratory for the variety of specimens and the opportunity to participate in clinical cytology procedures. I am currently not working therefore I can start immediately

Most recently 6 years, I worked as a Cytotechnologist, Histologist and a Molecular Scientist in the clinical laboratory involved in collecting and preparing specimens, interpreting them using a microscope and other medical equipment, and delivering test results to physicians and patients on time with accuracy and on time manner.

Let me briefly highlight the skills, values and contributions I will bring to your healthcare facility:

My Laboratory Management duty included

1. Preparation of cytosmear smears, histology slides and molecular test samples with advanced instruments and conduct QA and QC procedures with each prepared samples.

2. Microscopically examine and diagnose gynecologic and non-gynecologic slides for infectious, hormonal change, pre- malignant, and malignant disease processes

3. Worked on tissue dissection, processing, embedding, cutting, H and E, Immunohistology staining QA and QC slides and send the slides on time for Pathologist review

4. Purchase laboratory reagents and instruments

5. Ensure all clinical documents completion, accurate and on time

6. Ensure all laboratory materials, instruments and documents meet CAP standard

7. 25 years clinical lab experience with five years cytotechnologist, five years histologist and eight years molecular technologist with China Medical School and US graduated school education

Since a resume can neither fully detail all my skills and accomplishments nor convey my potential to your Cytology and Histology Department, I would welcome a personal interview to further explore the merging of my education, experience, ambition and enthusiasm with your facility's objectives. I am not working now, therefore available immediately and willing to relocate. I can be reached at 724-***-**** or Email: adaup6@r.postjobfree.com
