I guess everyone is hard at work out there?? or maybe I don’t have my “in” enough to post yet? I’d just liketo say that Imagilin was very cooperative with me and answered my short Informational interview questions to appease my Career Counselor…CHECK!! That felt good Looks like I will be starting in the Spring Semester, and I’m very excited!!! Stay Geeky

Hi there!!! I am really excited that I have found your Biotech. info. website!!!! I am currently doing research towards a possible career change. I am working with the Frederick County Works Services ( frederickworks.com ) which has federal funding for frederick county residents towards short term training/schooling programs. As of now I have my heart set on Biotech., and am looking into achieving approval for a voucher to attend the Bioprocessing Technology Certificate Program @ FCC (Frederick Community College). There are a bunch of hoops that I must jump through to achieve this! One being that I have to submitt an “Informational Interview” ; which is a series of questions regarding information about this field from a person currently working. I have tried to contact multiple Labs, including their HR departments, to little or no avail! They all seem to be so secretive and/or request specific names of persons to transfer me to. Lonza was one company that allowed me to (through HR) email a list of questions. Although it has been 2 wks and I without an reply. I am planning on seeking out help through the college as well. I realize that this will be a stepping stone for future jobs, and I may not get an interview with someone who has a job with only a certificate, as most places I have researched require an Associates or Bachelor’s Degree. However, I plan on continuing education on my own via student loan, self-pay, financial aid etc. So any help networking to acheive my goals here would be much appreciated!!! Also take into consideration that I am NOT job hunting here, only INFORMATION hunting! Although if there is anyone out there who has an entry-level job, cleaning, receptionist or any other job that may pave the way towards a future in Biotech. I wuld be appreciative. Thank you so much for your time. Have a great day!!

Does anyone know what happened to a company called Bio-Tech Imaging Inc? Was is sold or bought out? My mother-in-law had some investment in that company and I’m just trying to track down what the status is. Thanks!!
