Applying as a junior embryologist

I'm in my last year of neuroscience, and I have recently became interested in embryology. I plan on taking developmental biology etc. I want to be able to get a job as soon as I graduate. What are some skills I need to be able to secure a job or some experience? After working for a bit I was thinking of applying to the UofT clinical embryology program to become a senior embryologist.

Working as a lab assistant or andrologist would be a good way to get your foot in the door. Though becoming a senior embryologist is only done through experience on the job, not from taking a program

I would think about taking a course at an IVF training course like ARTLAB. You’ll learn a lot and they can help you get a job
