Phlebotomy Technician Jobs Overview
Both phlebotomists and phlebotomy technicians are focused on drawing blood and then diligently labeling, storing, and sending out the samples—whether for transfusions, research, donations, or various types of medical/lab testing. Depending on the organization (and its size), phlebotomy technician jobs encompass many of the same tasks, but a certified phlebotomist may assume the role of a manager supervising a team of technicians.
Still, phlebotomy technicians are medical professionals who:
- Greet patients or blood donors and discuss the venipuncture process.
- Draw blood and bandage the site.
- Monitor patients or donors after the draw.
- Sterilize and clean any reusable tools, while cleaning and clearing all workstations.
- Organize blood vials and prepare them for testing or processing.
Also, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is predicting a rosy outlook for this field, with employment expected to grow at a rate of 22%—much faster than the average for all occupations—as hospitals and several other medical outfits keep up the need for bloodwork.

Phlebotomy Technician Training and Skills
Be sure to have a high school degree (or the equivalent). After that, you’ll have to complete a phlebotomy-technician training program at a community college or vocational school, which can take up to a year (although some phlebotomy technician jobs offer their own training). The programs typically contain a mix of classes and laboratory sessions, which cover:
- medical terms and an introduction to healthcare
- physiology and anatomy
- phlebotomy theory
- practical aspects of phlebotomy
- instructions on identifying, labeling, and tracking blood samples
If you really want to be competitive in this field (and earn higher pay), you can obtain a professional certification through an organization like the National Phlebotomy Association (NPA).
Meanwhile, these skills will help strengthen your phlebotomy career:
- fine motor skills
- patience and compassion
- dexterity and superior hand-eye coordination
- accuracy and attention to detail
- organizational skills and an aptness for multitasking
- ability to be on your feet in a fast-paced environment for long periods of time

Update Your Phlebotomy Technician Resume
You won’t be able to get the position you want without a properly optimized resume. For any phlebotomy technician jobs, it’s important to accentuate both your technical competencies (e.g., blood-specimen collection and storage) and your soft skills (e.g., your ability to act quickly if an adverse event occurs).
Plus, you’ll need a dedicated section for your credentials, where you should include any professional phlebotomy certifications, but also additional credentials, such as training in Basic Life Support (BLS) and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)/First Aid.
Having trouble getting started? Then grab some ideas from Monster’s phlebotomist resume sample. Also, if you don’t have much experience, send a cover letter with your applications to emphasize your interest in the field to recruiters and hiring managers.
Interviewing for a Phlebotomy Technician Job
Job interviews can make people anxious. And that’s natural. But practicing beforehand can help take the edge off. You don’t have to spend too much time doing so either. Most places that hire phlebotomy technicians will ask about a few key items, so it’s best that you rehearse your responses to questions related to:
- your knowledge of relevant medical equipment
- how you calm panicky patients
- what experience you have performing venipunctures

How Much Do Phlebotomy Technician Jobs Pay?
Your experience and where you’re based may affect what you get paid. But, based on our data, the median salary for a phlebotomist is $16.64 per hour. However, if you’re starting off as an entry-level phlebotomy technician, your pay will likely be closer to $13.61 per hour. Now, if you gain experience and eventually become professionally certified—which is preferable to most employers—then you may earn up to $23.99 per hour.
Meanwhile, at Monster’s Salary Tools site, you can customize the results by inputting any job title and then adding the city you’re in too.
