Working at American Red Cross

Published

There are positions as a CNA or phlebotomist at American Red Cross. I have both those certifications. Has anyone ever worked at Red Cross? what is it like, because it even requires some out-of-the-city work? and I can't imagine what a CNA would do there, whats the pay and would you recommend anyone working there?

Would you be working the bloodmobile drives? Sounds neat! No idea what it would pay. I presume it would be an excellent oppoortunity to hone your poking skills - and most of the clientele probably have great veins :).

yeah because on the application it says that the hours will vary depending on bloodmobile drive and location

I presume this would be a lot of repetitive work. If you don't mind that, great. If you want a little more variety in your day (more exposure to different stuff but with harder work) consider the hospital job you're applying for. Would you describe yourself as a person who thrives on routine or variety?
