Q.  How do I apply for a position at Mon Health System?
A.  Applications for positions must be downloaded from our Careers site
and submitted by mail, fax or in person to our Human Resources office. Click "Job Search" to search our available positions.

Q.  Can you define the various job categories?
A.  The job categories have been established to allow applicants to narrow their search of available positions. 

Administrative/Clerical positions are often those that involve a great deal of work with the general public and also include clerical duties such as typing, filing, answering telephones and coordinating schedules.  Examples include:  receptionist, administrative assistant, customer service representative, registration, etc. 

Allied Health positions usually require specialized training and often licensure or registration. These positions are clinical in nature. Examples include:  radiology technologist, respiratory therapist, medical lab technologist and pharmacist.

Clinical Support positions are often “technician” positions that work in support of other clinical functions.  Some are more clerical in nature and most will involve direct patient care and/or interaction.  Examples include:  unit secretary and patient transport. 

Management positions are jobs that require strong leadership skills and in most cases will require direct experience and higher education.  Examples include:  department manager. 

Nursing positions require a current state nursing licensure. 

Professional positions will usually require post-secondary education or substantial experience in the given field.     

Service positions are in areas that do not require direct patient care but will often involve direct patient contact.  These positions will usually require a high school diploma or equivalent and some will require additional technical training.  Examples include:  nutrition services aide, housekeeping assistant and maintenance.

Q.  I applied for a position several weeks ago and noticed that the job is still posted.  Do I need to reapply?
A.  Some positions will remain in view while interviews are being conducted or as decisions are being made.  Sometimes there are several positions available with the same title; we always encourage applicants to apply for each and every position of interest for which they qualify.  

Q.  How long do you keep applications on file?
A.  Applications are kept on file for 6 months.  New opportunities are available on a frequent basis, so we encourage job seekers to continue to let us know when they are interested in additional opportunities.  

Q.  How many hours a week do I need to work to receive benefits?
A.  You must be employed in a part time position budgeted for a minimum of 20 hours per week to be eligible for insurance benefits such as health, dental, vision, disability and life insurance—as well as paid time off.
