Hello. I am looking to get out of the clinic and into more corporate work/desk jobs or even manager positions in a clinic. I am a non certified Veterinary technician of 2 years with a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science. I have been applying to jobs within the agriculture industry and vet med (pet insurance, laboratory) and haven’t even turned a head once I send in my resume. Is anyone really going to hire me without going back to school?

They will. I have a fairly similar background to you & it took me about 4 months to secure a position, and I had 5 years experience in veterinary management. Remote corporate jobs are tougher. They almost require a different, tangential degree or field of experience. My biggest recommendation for landing an in-clinic management job is to directly email your resume to hospitals in your area. Explain that you are looking for management or supervisory positions, and ask them to please contact you if any opportunities fitting your skill set arise. This is how I got all my best leads.

I went from agency to in house PR 1.5 years ago (I’m at a prof services firm in nyc).

Is this normal in the corporate, non agency world? Not sure if this is just due to the pandemic and WFH, but I was under the impression that in house life would be more chill.
