What is the "official" job title of a phlebotomist

[xpinchx]

I'm sifting through available jobs on my hospital's website and I can't find Phlebotomist on it anywhere. I tried alphabetical order and got nothing, and even tried searching for "CONTAINS 'phleb' " and got nothing. I just called the phlebotomy department today and asked if I could apply in person (I hate online job applications in general) and they said there were 2-3 positions available on the website. What exactly should I be searching for?

I was a "lab assistant" when I was a phlebotomist. I think a lot are in the labs since that's where the blood has to go to get processed.

Try "clinical lab assistant" that is generally the title.

Sometimes these sites will let you search by department -- phlebotomists (or "phlebotomy technicians) will probably be under "laboratory"

good for you for being a phleb. I've worked as a phleb for the lab for several years and I love it. It's a great way to get clinical experience. Sure beats stacking towels as an ER volunteer anyway. Does the lab itself have a separate page with employment links? that's how it is at the lab I work at.

Try searching under Allied Health.

Here we call them "venipuncture technicians".
