HEALTH CARE JOB SEARCH SITES:

Sites Reviewed: medjobcity.com
                        Aurorahealthcare.org

 There is a high demand in the health care industry for job-seekers. The problem is, it’s hard to find the perfect job that fits your ideal standards and one in which you have the necessary skills and experience for. Since there are so many available jobs out there, it’s hard to find where to start. The two websites available for review feature: 1) a nationwide review and 2) a local health care provider review – Wisconsin .

Format:  

Medjobcity.com

This website is a complete job search engine for those interested in the health care industry. The basic format that the website provides is a welcome introduction to the website, a listing of healthcare categories, and articles, tips, and news for the user. Although it may appear to provide too much information, the layout of the webpage is very thorough in that you can find out any amount of information from general to specific details. It makes good use of colors. Also, the colors used, gives me a sense of a medical atmosphere. This website is targeted mainly towards the jobseeker, but does provide a few opportunities for employers to list available jobs. There are a few advertisements that are listed on the website, but most of it is towards the bottom where it doesn’t attract too much attention.

Aurorahealthcare.org  

This website is mainly for those interested in the general products and services that Aurora Health Care offers. For those interested in a job, it might be hard to see the employment link located at the bottom of the page if they did not know where to look. When accessing this link though, the page introduces its values of Aurora Health Care. It provides a job search option, as well as featured positions within the hospital. This website is different in that current employees may also access information through this page. This was not available on Medjobcity.com, probably due to the website being aimed on more general terms. There is good use of color again with this website. It displays the traditional Aurora Health Care colors and also displays a picture of a health care provider. What this website provided that Medjobcity.com did not, was a “Contact Us” link where specific questions or comments could be sent to the employer.  

Usability:  

Medjobcity.com  

This website uses a very easy navigational system. Most of the information that a jobseeker would like to pull up can be done in a simple click of the mouse on a link, or by using the accessible pull-down menus provided. Keyword boxes, specifications to match any or all words, and specifications to match any state in the US are provided for the user. This website is nice because the user does not have to login to look at available jobs. Sometimes, this can be a hassle, when the user just wants to take a glance. Most of the time, websites require users to log in just to use their services. The only thing that requires the user to login or sign up with their services is if they want to post a resume. This may be beneficial to those that want to use this service on a long-term basis.  

Aurorahealthcare.org

The website makes good use of links to specific information. Unlike Medjobcity.com, it does not provide a pull-down menu. The navigational features are easy and simple to use.  

Marketing:  

Medjobcity.com  

Most of the items listed on the website are directed towards the job-seekers. There is not much marketing the website provides except a few spots for advertisements. Even so, the advertisements are placed where they are not distracting to the job-seeker. There is a link for employers to click to receive a membership rate if they are to post available jobs on their website.  

Aurorahealthcare.org  

This website only provides information with products, services, and hospitals that are associated with Aurora Health Care. It is limited in its advertising as there seems no outsiders are allowed. The website promotes itself.  

Employer Access:  

Medjobcity.com  

This website provides a limited amount of space to the employers that would like to submit available jobs on their website. A nice concept that is provided for new recruiters is a company word box where the employer can type in the company name and the website will be able to tell if anyone else from that company has submitted any other available job postings. This is advantageous to the employer, because they can cut down on their cost of advertising on the website. The website provides discounts to companies that list more than one job on their site and. The employers are able to update information as needed throughout the length of their membership (usually 90 days at a time). Although, there aren’t too many links for the employers, they do provide a special featured employer column in which they highlight a few employers. Most of the special features are linked directly to the specific employer being featured.

 Aurorahealthcare.org  

There was not a feature for employer access. I think the reason is because this is a private company in which job postings are done internally. There was a link that read services to employers, but this was to provide free updates and information to employers. This was more of a subscription to medical information.  

Job-seeker Access:  

Medjobcity.com  

This website provides an easy and effective way to those interested in the health care profession. It provides useful information to those that are “just looking” at what the website has to offer. If and when the user is interested in making a commitment with the services the website provides, the user can sign up with the services by simply providing some personal information. When logged-in, the job-seeker is able to search available jobs, see how many times their profile has been viewed by a prospective employer, and edit or update their current information. The user is also able to submit their resume, but only when signed-up with the website.  

Aurorahealthcare.org  

Aurora Health Care provides several different links to those looking for a job. There is a job search engine located within this website, helpful resources to those hoping to relocate due to their job, a help and instruction function in applying for a job, a separate function to create a profile, and even available volunteer opportunities for the users. There is no registration fee associated with submitting an application or resume, but the user must sign-up or log in to use this function.
