Typical positions available:
Receptionist: Our receptionists are not just warm bodied answering machines. The receptionist position may be the most important in our hospital, because as receptionist you are our first and last contact with the client. We do require and pay for at least 10 hours of continuing education/professional development per year. Many of our receptionists thrive in this position and stay here long term, while some move into a veterinary technician or other hospital role. See a general job description here.
Veterinary Technician: Our veterinary technicians are well trained, professional, career minded individuals. Our technicians are not just glorified animal holders. As a veterinary technician at Kyle Animal Hospital, you will utilize all the skills you are legally able and trained to perform. This of course will allow you to maximize your earning potential and job satisfaction. In fact, we not only require 15 hours of continuing education a year for our technicians; we pay for outside meetings, in-house training, tuition assistance for collegiate Registered Veterinary Technician programs, and even have an in-house program in place for you to obtain your Certified Veterinary Assistant certification through the TVMA! Our technicians may concentrate in a particular area-surgery, dentistry, behavior, feline, ultrasound, etc. See a list of the general job description here, and look over our training checklist here.
Veterinary Assistant As a veterinary assistant, you are very often you are our most intimate link with the patient. Much of your work will not be directly supervised, and you must be capable of independent observation and decision making. Veterinary assistants are also eligible for continuing education assistance, and we strongly encourage this as many (but not all) of our veterinary assistants work into receptionist, veterinary technician, or even management roles. See the general job description here.
