Laboratory assistant job in Grafton, MA
For onsite visits, the candidates must have their legs fully covered, no skin showing even at the ankles.
**Third shift:
Has experience working overnights, ideally recent experience but certainly an understanding of what it takes to acclimate.
The ideal candidate for us has experience of working in a fast-paced, high-volume work environment.

For someone with Vet Tech or Vet Assisting experience, if they also worked recently at an Amazon or Fed Ex or some other fulfillment position, or perhaps in food service that can be helpful - they can be a great fit, but our production-based work can at times be too fast for them if they are not from a big clinic.

For someone without lab experience at all:
*a willingness to work with and handle blood, urine, fecals and biopsies.
*fast-paced work history where they are on their feet and moving - food service, fulfillment, warehouse, production, Amazon / FedEx etc.
