Q: How long have you been at Quest and what was your first role?
Jessie: I started at Oxford Immunotec as a temp/contract position on the manual sample processing team before our site was acquired by Quest.

Jessie: From processing samples to contributing to a more efficient process to fixing equipment, the ways I serve our patients and the lab as a whole has evolved.
Q: Did you ever take any risks with taking on a new role and, were you encouraged to move into different roles or did you move on your own?
Jessie: With every new role comes risk: not fitting with the team, not being the right person for the job, not performing to standards. There has always been encouragement by leaders to work toward goals, personal and professional. I had a great team to learn and grow with in each position.
Q: What tools or offerings from Quest did you utilize to help you in your career progression? (tuition reimbursement, EMPower trainings, etc)
Jessie: Encouragement from human resources and leaders to pursue open positions and to take advantage of tuition reimbursement opportunities. Being honest about my strengths and what roles those would best fit has really helped me along the way.
Q: What advice would you give to someone who desires more from their current career?

Q: Which of our 5Cs do you connect with most, and why? (Customer First, Care, Collaboration, Continuous Improvement, Curiosity)
