Entry Level Nuclear Medicine Technologist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level nuclear medicine technologist job?
Employers at this level look for ARRT or NMTCB certification (or eligibility), completed clinical rotations, and hands-on experience with gamma cameras and radiopharmaceutical preparation. Highlighting specific imaging procedures from your clinical hours, mentioning any modalities you trained on, and demonstrating familiarity with radiation safety protocols gives entry level candidates a clear edge over applicants who lead with coursework alone.
Which companies hire entry level nuclear medicine technologists?
Companies hiring entry level nuclear medicine technologists right now include McLeod Health, UCHealth, and Inova Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Hospitals, outpatient imaging centers, and multispecialty health systems tend to post the most openings at this level, particularly those with active nuclear cardiology or oncology programs.
Are there remote entry level nuclear medicine technologist jobs?
Yes, though most roles in nuclear medicine require on-site presence for hands-on imaging work. About 0% of entry level nuclear medicine technologist openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those tend to involve telehealth support, image review, or administrative functions rather than direct patient scanning.

Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior nuclear medicine technologist roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts clinical rotations or practicum hours toward the requirement, or explicitly mentions new graduates in the job description. Certification eligibility is typically accepted in place of years on the job.
