so it's summer vacation for me and I've been job hunting. I saw a posting for a part time lab tech at an optical store and I was thinking about applying, but the thing is that I'm not sure if there are any credentials that are needed for ths position. I looked it up on the internet and it says that places usually provide on the job training. I've only done one year of college studying to be a chemical laboratory technologist.

would I stand a chance? and what would a lab tech do an an optical place? like the typical tasks

thank you in advance =)

You may operate a machine that grinds the lenses and then you would finish the lenses (i.e. bevel, smooth) and then fit them into the frames. Depends on the company but you may do sales a fit for customers.They usually do provide training.
Go for it. It's always good to learn something new!
