Is there a way to enter the nuclear industry as a nuclear chemistry technician during an outage or as a contractor? How do you approach this if you don't have any experience but have a degree close to chemistry?

I do not remember magnetism on my NRRPT exam probably because there is no proof of damage radiologically yet. With a continued belief that cell phones cause damage with a possible increase in Maglevs I suspect that it will join that genre of scaremongering. There is a lot of cell phone radiation blockers marketed on the internet. Maybe we will see radiation blocking seat cushions soon.    It is a physical hazard though this last year a man wearing heavy chain necklaces was pulled into an MRI machine and strangled to death.
