What to Look For When Hiring
- Sanctioned status. The supervisor must be currently certified by a DHIA-affiliate to sign and submit records for ADGA / AGS programs.
- Goat-experienced. Dairy goat test-day work is different from cattle. Stand-and-deliver routines, milking-order sensitivity, and the rhythm of a goat parlor matter.
- Affiliated lab. Component analysis goes to a partnered lab. Turnaround and report format vary.
- Plan match. Standard, verification, and owner-sampler plans aren't interchangeable — pick the one that fits your goals.
- Service area or rotation. Testers run regular monthly loops. Get on a rotation that lines up with your test interval.
