As a service to our members during the current economic difficulties, the NJ HFMA Chapter will be offering a Resume Bank. Resumes will be posted on our web site, free of charge, for our members currently seeking employment. Resumes should be submitted to Laura Hess at NJHFMA@aol.com, and will be posted within 5 days of receipt.

Resumes should be submitted with a job category indicated, and will be posted accordingly. Job categories are as follows:

• Accounting/Finance
• Administration
• Reimbursement
• Managed Care
• Patient Financial Services
• Patient Access Services

Since resumes normally contain personal information, it will be up to the applicant as to how much personal data to include on their resume. A suggestion would be to post by first name, do not include address, and give an email address or phone number for potential employers to contact you.

Resumes will remain posted for one month or until the member contacts Laura Hess at NJHFMA@aol.com to remove the posting.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
