"How hard is it to get employed as an IBCLC if one is not also an RN? I know there are other ways to get employed than by hospitals, but the only other two that are popping out at me are midwifery practices and private practice."

this question was asked of me by a friend trying to determine if she would be better off first getting her RN licensure, then the IBCLC, or if going straight for the IBCLC and seeking employment would be feasible.

Thanking you for your input (& I couldn't search the archives properly on this topic-kept getting zero results, so may have been using wrong terms)
