Hi,

This is a forum for teachers. You won't find an answer to your question here. From personal experience, you will not be able to find a job in the USA unless you are sponsored by a company inside that country. Unfortunately, the diversity lottery is not an option for you if you were born in India. I suggest you check out the United States' immigration website. Good luck.

Medical laboratory technicians with a four-year degree or higher are known as medical technologists in the state of New York. One way to get work here would be to come here on a student visa, and then apply for volunteer and part-time positions around the city. There is a chance you could get an employer to sponsor your visa that way, but it's pretty complicated. There are also issues of having your transcripts evaluated and passing the state exams for medical technology.

You are in the wrong forum, as others mentioned. The problem is that there aren't any good forums that I know of for med lab science stuff. Good luck!
