Resume tips for cath lab technologists

• →Lead with your case volume and lab type. Annual cases and whether the lab runs PCI around the clock tell a manager most of what they need.
• →List procedures by name: diagnostic caths, PCI, EP studies, device implants, structural cases like TAVR. Vague lines like "assisted with procedures" get skipped.
• →Spell out your role in the room. Scrubbing, circulating, and monitoring are different skills, so say which ones you cover.
• →Put STEMI call on your resume with how often you take it. Call coverage is usually the hardest slot to fill.
• →Name your hemodynamic and charting systems, like Mac-Lab and Epic. Managers want techs who can chart on day one.
• →If you have RCIS, put it next to your name at the top of the page so it shows in the ATS preview.
