HCIS Career Paths, Job Titles and Search Strategies

Search Strategies:

Understand your job search will take time and effort.

Start by reviewing and using resources in the JCCC’s Career Development Center . You have access to the resources of the JCCC CDC as a JCCC HCIS student and also as an alumni.

As you start your job search, be sure to:

• Enter your health IT job search at the right skill level.
• Review job descriptions and be sure you meet most of the qualifications listed.
• Complete your HCIS LinkedIn Profile to include your JCCC HCIS coursework and experience.
• Only use an updated health IT resume.
• Tailor your resume and cover letter to reflect the qualifications in the job description.
• Remember, the list of qualifications in a job description just an employer’s wish list. You do not need to meet all of the qualifications to be considered for a position.
• Check the JCCC HCIS LinkedIn page for job postings every Friday.
• Attend Career Fairs

HCIS is part of JCCC Computer Science Information Technology Division (CSIT).

CSIT sponsors a reverse career fair every Fall & Spring semester. Dates are announced via stumail, Canvas announcements and on HCIS LinkedIn
