Notes:  
NOTE: Grade and announcement number may be different. Check with the facility when filling out an application.

Basic qualifications to be considered for any of the medical health care positions with the Navajo Area Indian Health service are you must be a U.S. Citizen, have a non-restricted license and have completed a residency in the specialty you are requesting and thus be board eligible. If you qualify you need to send me a resume’ via fax or email (in a Microsoft Word document format). Include a cover letter which includes 3 professional references and their phone numbers that can be checked. I will FAX out your resume’ to all of our facilities for consideration. If you are sending me this information by EMAIL please put "Cover Letter and CV" in the subject line. I am often out of the office for an extended period of time and it will expedite the dissemination of your information and application.

Once I receive your CV, I send it out to the various hospitals. If interested they will contact you with the specifics of your specialty, responsibilities, schedules, housing, pay and benefits. I am sending you the normal response to inquiry and hope to hear from you soon.

A cover letter stating what you are looking for, when you will be available or any other pertinent historical information is often of help in better selling yourself to the facilities. You should allow 2-3 weeks for review before expecting someone to contact you personally.

Although an application for employment with the U.S. government is not immediately required to be considered if you choose to do this go to http://www.ihs.gov/JobsCareerDevelop/JobsAtIHS/ where you will find the forms at the bottom of the page. Fill them out and send them to my address listed below.

You are also encouraged to review our website at http://www.navajohealthjobs.ihs.gov/ where you will find more information about working for the Navajo Area Indian Health Service and where you can also find application forms. The IHS also has a Loan Repayment Program, you may find out more information on this by going to www.ihs.gov/
or by calling the IHS LRP Program at 301/443-2310 or by contacting me.

Thank you for the inquiry,
