Hello Twinkle,

If you are interested in becoming a junior scientist, at first you must consider how much education do you need.

The basic eligibility is a master's degree in an applied science or a related appropriate discipline is required. Also, one year of experience working in a lab environment is required.

You may find that experience in other jobs will help you become a junior scientist. Many junior scientist jobs require experience in role such as research assistant. Many junior scientists also have previous career experience in roles such as laboratory technician or internship.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck!
