Are you the kind of person who does not wait for the phone to ring? Good. We should talk.
Unitek Learning is looking for a highly driven Graduate Placement & Employer Development Specialist to help our Medical Assisting graduates launch their healthcare careers. This is not a sit-back-and-process-paperwork role. This is a build-the-pipeline, open-the-door, make-the-call, land-the-job-order, match-the-graduate, verify-the-hire kind of role.
In other words, if you have ever worked a recruiting desk, chased job orders, sourced employer partners, filled openings, and felt the sweet satisfaction of making a placement happen, you may have just found your next lane.
You will own employment outcomes for Medical Assisting graduates across assigned Bay Area and/or Sacramento-area campuses. Your job is to build strong employer partnerships with medical offices, clinics, urgent care centers, specialty practices, hospital systems, and other healthcare employers who need talent. You will spend time on campus and in the field. That means calls, emails, texts, in-person visits, networking, follow-up, and more follow-up. The glamorous stuff. The coffee-fueled stuff. The “I know exactly who you should interview” stuff.
