How hard this is to fill
This is the same score as the free check.
For one manager
Say which services, how much call, and what case volume the job carries. Ask which cases the person scrubs alone and which still need a second tech.
License and training
Most states do not license surgical technologists, but several require certification or registration. Employers often want the CST from NBSTSA. Confirm the rule in your state.
