The primary qualifications for becoming an entry-level nutritionist include earning a bachelor's degree in a field such as food and nutrition or dietetics, as well as completing an internship and getting a relevant credential. Employers prefer applicants who are either registered dietitians or at least qualified to become one—the process and regulations for this vary by state but usually include several hundred hours of supervised experience and passing an exam. This is an entry-level role, so you are not expected to have any professional experience beyond an internship, though any previous experience still helps you stand out from other applicants. Fulfilling the duties and responsibilities of this position requires excellent communication, research, and interpersonal skills.
