PHC provides opportunities for professional development and career advancement for our employees. To be eligible to apply for an open position, an employee should meet the following criteria:
- meet the minimum qualifications of the position
- have completed at least six months in their current role
- and be in Good Standing as defined in the Good Standing section of the Employee Handbook
PHC encourages managers to give preference to internal candidates who meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of the position.
PHC posts all job opportunities on our electronic job board through ADP.
Applying through your ADP profile instead of via our external career site allows you to see postings only available to internal candidates and will ensure that your application is flagged as an internal candidate.
Positions that are only open to current employees are noted as “Internal” on the job board. If you are interested in more than one opportunity, apply to each posting individually.
Students
PHC recognizes the importance of student educational experiences in community health centers. PHC staff will oversee the supervision of students when providing patient care, treatment, or services as part of their educational training.
PHC requires an executed Student Affiliation Agreement between PHC and the educational institution of the student who will be completing a student experience at PHC. Students who are approved to complete an experience at PHC are required to complete a student information form, student orientation, confidentiality agreement, and to provide a Letter of Good Standing from their educational institution before starting their experience. PHC does not approve requests for shadowing experiences that are not part of an experience covered under a Student Affiliation Agreement.
