All available positions are posted at coxhealth.com. Check the postings daily because they change frequently.

Visit the job search page, choose the appropriate criteria, and click Search. The next page will display your results. You can click on a job title to view the job details or check the boxes next to the job titles and select View Selected Jobs if you wish to view more than one opening. Below each job title will be the Department, Schedule, Shift, Hours and the Job Details for each position. Select the appropriate application link (there are separate links for current employees and new candidates). It will take you to the page to log-in or if it is your first time applying, click Apply Now to complete an Applicant Profile before advancing to the application. Be sure to use the same name and SSN on your Profile as you will be using on the application. You will receive a confirmation email from the system letting you know that the application was received.

The last 4 digits of your SSN are required to ensure security of your application data. This 4 digit number as well as your first and last name match to your application, allowing you to copy your most recent application, check the status of your applications, and allows Human Resources to see a complete history of your submitted applications. Applicants can be assured that security is an on-going effort, and we take it very seriously. We follow industry standard practices to ensure that the data we are responsible to safeguard is protected.

An e-mail address is required to complete the Applicant Profile unless otherwise noted below the email address field. If you do not have an e-mail address, there are several providers available that offer free e-mail accounts including Hotmail, Yahoo, and Google.

The application opens in a new window and is therefore treated by some systems as a "pop-up." After disabling the pop-up blocker on your computer, you should be able to access the application. You may re-enable the pop-up blocker after the application has been completed and successfully sent.

Once an online application has been completed for a specific position, an applicant may select another position and log back in with the username and password created. Applicants will be able to copy their most recent application information to apply to a new position.

You can save your information by clicking on Save Now in the Save Your Work Often button that scrolls down the right side of the application before you cancel out of the application. Once you have the missing information, you may log back in with your user name and password to complete the application.

Go to any job and go in like you are going to apply for the job. Once you click the apply link, you will receive a message to click here to complete a partial application, or click the other link to delete the partial application.

If you receive an error message, it may be that you are missing required information. A message will indicate which fields are missing so you may complete the information and submit the application. However, if the error does not indicate missing information, please use the Send Error to Support link to send a detailed email explaining the issue you are having and someone will contact you. Frequently use the Save Your Work Often button that scrolls down the right hand of the application to help prevent losing any data should an error occur.

Once you've submitted the application, you will receive an email notification thanking you for applying.
