Las Vegas is Calling!

[Roy Wilcox]

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 
• 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!
