Introduction
Many students ask whether completing a course with First Sleep School guarantees job placement. The short answer is no, and here’s why: while our programs prepare you for certification and provide resources to help you succeed, employment decisions are made by individual sleep centers, not training providers.
Key Takeaways
First Sleep School does not guarantee job placement.
We provide resources like the AASM Sleep Center Directory to help you connect with employers.
Networking is critical—online groups and local connections can make a big difference.
Why We Can’t Guarantee Placement
Job placement depends on many factors outside of training, including:
Local job market and demand for sleep technologists.
Employer hiring policies and experience requirements.
The candidate’s initiative, professionalism, and flexibility.
Training programs like ours can prepare you for success, but employment decisions are made by hiring managers at sleep centers.
