Aim Given the intensifying competition in Germany for medical technologists for radiology (MTR), our aim was to identify job-related preferences among MTR trainees. Materials and Methods For this purpose, a survey was carried out among MTR trainees at the MTR schools in Düsseldorf, Mainz, and Heidelberg. The focus was on the individual influence of 40 work- and employer-related factors and on the preferred place of work (hospital, practice) and area of operation (radiology, nuclear medicine, radiation therapy) after completing training. Results 90 MTR trainees took part in the survey. On average, they indicated a pleasant working atmosphere, regular compensation for overtime, and good teamwork as the most important criteria for applying for an MTR position. With regard to their preferred place of work, more than two-thirds stated that they would initially apply to a hospital after completing their training. Moreover, the majority of the respondents prefer to start their MTR careers in diagnostic and interventional radiology, followed by radiation therapy and nuclear medicine. Conclusion Imaging clinics and practices can use the present results for targeted personnel recruitment in order to make their MTR positions as attractive as possible from the point of view of young MTRs.
