Hello from Sunny Las Vegas! We're looking for our next great NIBIN technician to work within one of the most admired NIBIN units in the country. This is a well-respected and well-funded group that's achieving fast turnaround times and working, nearly in real-time, to crack cases and provide good leads for our partners.
Currently for this job classification, a 4 year degree in a science field is required, and that's due to the desire to hire firearm examiner trainees from this group if/when the opportunity presents itself. Also, having that education allows NIBIN techs to be appealing to other details within the forensics lab, meaning this is a GREAT "foot in the door" kind of job, while being paid as much as a regular forensic scientist in many other labs!
Consider what Las Vegas offers:
- Lots of sun 8)
- All the fun of California and her beaches nearby, but without the taxes
- Mt Charleston (camping, hiking, sledding, skiing) less than an hour away
- Lake Mead and all the aquatic fun you can handle
- Colorado River with kayaking and fishing options
- Red Rock National Park
- St George and the stunning Zion National Park just a short drive up I-15
- Vegas Golden Knights (Stanley Cup Champions 2023 - Whoop Whoop!)
- Raiders Football
- Athletics MLB is coming!
- Any band or traveling performance you can imagine comes through Las Vegas. They literally ALL come here.
- A Foodie's dream city
- No state tax
- One of the nation's best cities to find cheap airfare in/out, so travel adventures anywhere are more affordable
- Lots of "Locals" discounts available and a very supportive community for what we do here
If you're hoping to work for a great group in a awesome lab with administration that very supportive, please apply! Here's the link, and they're taking applications until 3/27, or until they have 150 applicants (whichever comes first), so act fast!
