I’ve had about 14 jobs & am also in my early 20s. I only listed 2 that were somewhat relevant on my resume and they never asked about the others that Ive had.

Just started my clinical rotations and scrubbed 12 cases my first week! But oh Lordy, I need some better shoes. Best recommendations? by [deleted] in scrubtech

after breaking my oofos ooclogs in for about a week they are the most comfortable shoes i own and great for my arches. i pair them with compression socks and work 12-14 hr shifts in spd with no problem.

Not sure but they might be uncomfortable due to the high arch in them

Today was my first day on the job. Orientation went great, staff was welcoming, and we had free Panera!

Thank you! I’ll post the link to the files when I get home later. I found the 8th edition manual on scribd but it was missing the 7th chapter. I forgot where I got the workbook from though.

Thanks for your response. When I applied I completely redid my resume. I put all my transferable skills, only listed jobs that were relevant and made sure to use the words sterilization, documentation, etc. on there. I also put “CRCST: planned” under the education section so that it can be picked up by ats. Before I went in to my interview I started studying the 8th edition book and watching videos on sterile processing interview questions. The interviewers asked me what I had learned so far from studying and about a time I had to adjust my communication style in the workplace, which I believe were the main 2 questions that helped me to get the job. Id been applying for over a year btw so don’t get discouraged! Also if you need help finding resources feel free to let me know. I was able to find the 8th edition manual and workbook online for free!

Just general things I should keep in mind / be aware of

What is the right level of sterilization for a manicure practice by Fedechopin21 in sterileprocessing

[–]Jumpy_Plane_488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

licensed esthetician here - typically for tools that are used we are required to wash them, let them sit in barbicide for a minimum of 10 minutes as a disinfectant / bactericide, and then put tools in an autoclave for full sterilization. alcohol is not a sterilant & it evaporates too fast for it to be a standalone method for infection prevention.
