Career Guides

ExploreHealthCareers.org
...a collaboration between several associations and organizations in health care, ExploreHealthCareers.org is a wonderful site filled with information on careers in all aspects of healthcare and medicine, from what career might fit you best to training and education and funding for your education. A special area of the site targets diversity populations and the need for more to be involved in this field. Excellent resource.
Education, Careers, and Outreach in Toxicology and Environmental Health
Prepared by the National Library of Medicine, this is a collection of resources on toxicology and environmental health for anyone interested in careers in these fields.
Hospital.com New!
...an information and news resource covering hospitals and other medical facilities. There is some information on the variety of jobs available in hospitals (not all are in medical fields) as well as volunteering at a hospital, but medical professionals will appreciate the information on specific institutions (under Hospitals, not Hospital).
LifeWorks
From the Office of Science Education at NIH, LifeWorks is a wonderful tool to use for exploring careers in science and healthcare -- not just medical fields but also engineering and scientific fields with relationships to health, medicine, and research. You can browse over 100 career descriptions by title, education required, interest area, or median salary (it's not just the MDs in those upper earning brackets). You can also use their Career Finder to help you find the best work for you based on you interests and skills. And, for those of you who already know what you want to do, there's advice on planning your education, starting as early as the 8th grade.
Medical Career Info
...it isn't new information, but it is all collected into a central location that is easy to read. This site was compiled by a nurse and several young adults interested in healthcare professions. The text is from the Occupational Outlook Handbook, and there are some big omissions (like M.D.), but most of the professions collected here do not require education / training beyond a bachelor's degree (note that I said "most"). Many do not require education / training beyond a 2-year degree, which makes this a good list for some who are considering this field but are unsure of how much they'd like to invest in or who are considering career changes that do not require a major investment in a bachelors or masters degree.
American Association of Medical Colleges
...considering a career in a medical field? This association represents the many accredited medical schools in the US and Canada, the teaching hospitals, the academic and professional societies for this field, and the medical students and residents. Check here for lists of accredited colleges, information on medical education and residency, and admission processes.
Orthotics and Prosthetics: Make a Career of Making a Difference
Biology meets engineering and artistry in this growing career field. "Orthotics and Prosthetics is the evaluation, fabrication and custom fitting of artificial limbs and orthopedic braces." Learn more about this field from the American Academy of Orthotists & Prosthetists. The site covers the general field, new technologies used in developing the replacement body parts, educational pathways and programs, profiles of several professionals, and a typical employment situation.
Pathology as a Career in Medicine
...excellent career information on this field of study from the American Society for Investigative Pathology

All Hospital Jobs.com
...nice, simple site for finding jobs in hospitals across the US. Yes, you can try the Google search box, but I much prefer to select my target state then browse the list of hospitals. You can connect to the website of each, the job listings (if they post online), or just write down the contact address / phone and submit a resume or CV the old fashioned way.
AMI Health Services
..."executive search and jobs for nurses, physicians, allied health, and other health professionals."

Health Management Career Center from the Health Intelligence Network
"...brings together qualified healthcare management professionals seeking new career opportunities and healthcare organizations that are seeking to fill health management positions within their companies." This is not the best site I have ever seen, but I am listing it because of the field covered. Job seekers who want to review jobs listed should be wary of the fact that no dates of posting nor application dates appear here, and I can't find anything to tell employers how long jobs will appear once listed. You may need to contact the employer / poster to see if the position is still open.

Browse jobs by industry (biotech/pharmaceuticals, healthcare, medical device/diagnostics) or search by keyword.

MedHunters
...lists jobs for health care professionals in a variety of settings all around the world. Select from Nursing, MD, Allied Health, or Other positions to browse the list of job fields, or scroll down each page to browse the same list of positions by location or Lifestyle (Sun, Snow, Mountains, Rural, etc.).

Preferred Healthcare
...placement firm operating in the US and Canada and assisting nurses, therapists, and medical technicians to find positions.
