Who posts physician career opportunities and job openings to this Web site?

 All positions are posted directly by employees of the hospital, medical clinic or health care organization where you would practice medicine.  They are not head hunters nor are they employees of outside recruitment agencies.

If you are a physician who wants to practice medicine in Wisconsin, the goal of this Web site is to make sure you can access every possible job opening and career opportunity in one place. 

During the development of this site, one of the clear messages received was physicians looking for positions wanted to be able to communicate directly with the employer without a representative acting on their behalf.  This Web site offers you that opportunity. 

I noticed that you can search for job openings by city or region.  I am not familiar with Wisconsin, so how do I know what cities are in a region?

A PDF file of a map of Wisconsin divided into regions is available next to the region drop down menu.  Major cities and towns are on the map.  The H on the map indicates the location of a hospital.

Do I need to post my resume to the Web site?

No, you do not need to post your resume to the Web site.  If you have your resume and cover letter in a Word document, you can cut and paste the text into APPLY FOR THIS POSITION form.  If you prefer, you can cut and paste the email of the contact person from the organization into your own email system and apply directly, or you can call the contact person.  All the information is available in the job posting. 

What if I send my application on line and I do not hear from the employer?

As is always true with cyber space communications, follow up with a phone call!
