Job overview
Amanda works in a laboratory and uses specialized instruments
to test specimens from patients. Each week, Amanda is assigned
to one of 10 stations set up to run a specific test. She runs the
tests for her assigned work area and puts the results into a
reporting system (Soft/Lab3). Some of the tests Amanda might
run include analyzing red and white blood counts or testing for
specific enzymes. The specimens she analyzes come from both
Mayo Clinic patients as well as non-Mayo patients via Mayo
Medical Laboratories.
Amanda is also responsible for the calibration, preventative
maintenance and troubleshooting of the complex instruments she
uses, and she will occasionally perform blood draws on patients.
Although Amanda's job is repetitive, she is motivated because
she understands that the test results will impact decisions
regarding patient care.
Additional duties
Amanda also helps with quality control in her lab, troubleshoots
instruments she is most familiar with and orders supplies. She
occasionally trains new employees and is involved with
department projects, such as helping implement a new lab
system or validating new tubes.
Amanda's main goals
Views this job as a stepping stone
Wants to continue to grow educationally and professionally

that drive the diagnoses."
