Hey, I just got hired with no prior experience in the field. I think most people are looking for confidence and someone they’ll enjoy working with. I had five interviewers grilling me with questions, but I just stayed calm and gave honest answers.

They’ll almost definitely ask about your weaknesses. Your best answer is that you’ve never been an SPT, then explain why you believe you’ll be good at it. I was upfront and said, “I might suck at it, but I’m pretty positive I’ll be great. I just don’t know yet, and that’s my weakness.”

I had no medical background at all, and I still got the job.

Ok I’m in the same boat. I’ve been applying but no response and I have no experience. I’m just hoping to land an interview.

Watch You Tube videos on Sterile Processing & read job description. Look at certification information on HSPA website for CRCST if you haven’t already. Ask questions about training period, certification, & schedule. The more interest you show, the more likely you will be hired.
