hire laboratory technicians in africa

You hire a laboratory technician to run tests for a clinic, hospital, private lab, research project or industrial quality lab. A good technician produces results doctors can trust, keeps the analysers calibrated and works safely with every sample.

A few questions, one at a time, then pick a time for a 30-minute strategy call with our team.

What to check when screening

  • Check their laboratory diploma and, where it applies, their professional registration.
  • Ask which areas they have worked in: haematology, biochemistry, microbiology or parasitology.
  • Confirm the analysers they know and how they run quality control.
  • Look for solid biosafety habits when handling samples.

Questions to ask in interview

  • A result looks abnormal and does not fit the patient. What do you do?
  • How do you run and record daily quality control on an analyser?
  • A sample arrives badly labelled. How do you handle it?

Skills to look for

  • Sample collection and handling
  • Haematology and biochemistry
  • Microbiology and parasitology
  • Analyser calibration
