Are you a fit?
Are you a rule follower? Double-checker? Someone who doesn’t cut corners to save time? Do you want a job that is a bit slower-paced, but also very technical? As an MRI technologist, you have to make sure that the patient is safe at all times. An MRI machine is large, powerful, dangerous and expensive tool. Being cautious, asking lots of questions, and making sure that everything, and everyone, around you is safe is a very important part of the job.
