Hi everyone, I'm trying to understand the salary expectations after completing a Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (https://www.smart-academy.in/course/medical-laboratory-techniques/)(DMLT). I've seen a wide salary range online, so I wanted more real opinions.
Freshers seem to start in roles like lab assistant, technician, or pathology support staff. But the starting salary varies depending on whether you work in:
Private diagnostic labs
Multi-specialty hospitals
Small clinics
Government healthcare centers
If anyone has practical experience or knows someone working after completing a Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology, please share the typical fresher salary and growth after 1–2 years.
