More than a year into this pandemic, it’s clear that the emergency medicine job market has been significantly affected. Not only that, but many emergency physicians are using this opportunity to make changes, whether it’s switching to a new job setting or branching out into telehealth. ACEP is committed to helping you navigate these twists and turns by growing our career resources to serve members with various needs. Keep reading for an overview of career-advancement content available to ACEP members.

ACEP has recently gathered our job-related resources into a one-stop shop to make it easier to find what you need, when you need it.

That $15 annual fee includes services related to legal concerns (both business and personal/family), financial matters, IRS, real estate and estate planning, immigration and naturalization, and civil/consumer issues.

Upcoming Job Fair

If you’re in the market for a new job, make plans to participate in a virtual job fair hosted by ACEP, EMRA, and emCareers.org, 5–8 p.m. ET on May 20, 2021. It’s free for all members.

Wondering what a virtual job fair looks like? It’s an online event connecting emergency medicine professionals with private practice employers, group practices, hospitals, health systems, and other recruiters around the country. Job seekers can browse employer profiles and general emergency medicine and subspecialty positions, then privately interact with employers via live chat or live video chat on a mobile device or desktop.
