Our Hiring Process

We’re excited you have taken the first step towards a remarkable career with us! When you find a position that matches your abilities, submit your employment application.

You’ll receive an email letting you know we got your application. We’ll then begin the review process, which may take 1-2 weeks. Feel free to check your application status by logging into our Career Opportunities page.

Once your application has been reviewed – and if you’ve been selected to move forward in our process – you will receive an email invitation to complete an online assessment from our partner, Gallup.

This assessment focuses on your match to our culture and the position. It allows us to better understand the unique abilities you can bring to Highmark Health that may not be found on your resume.

Depending on the position, the assessment may only take 10 minutes or it might be more involved and take up to 45 minutes. Please note, our interviewing and selection process will only continue upon completion of the assessment.

Once your assessment has been submitted, a recruiter will review your application, resume and assessment results to determine if we will proceed to an interview. Depending on the position, you may have either a phone, video, and/or face-to-face interview.

If selected for an interview, our team will be in contact to ensure you have all the necessary information prior to your interview.

This is the moment you’ve been waiting for!

If you are selected to receive a job offer, our team will be in contact to discuss all the details including pay, benefits, paid time off – all the perks of working here – and next steps.

Covid-19 Vaccination Information

Effective November 1, 2021, Highmark Health and its affiliates are requiring all new hires beginning employment to submit proof of full vaccination with one of the three authorized COVID-19 vaccines. Full vaccination is a condition of employment that applies to all team members, including those designated as off-site. New team members joining Highmark Health or its affiliates are required to be fully vaccinated or to be approved for a medical or religious accommodation before beginning employment.

Once you’ve electronically accepted an offer, you’ll start our pre-employment screening process, which minimally includes a drug screening and background check.

Some roles within our provider network, Allegheny Health Network, may also require an employee health screening.

We will be in contact with you to ensure you know what is expected from you during this time and will reconfirm your start date once all pieces of the pre-employment process have cleared.

At this point, you will receive an email with a link to our brief candidate experience survey. While your participation is optional, we value and appreciate your feedback as it helps us continue to improve.

Welcome to the team!

We’re excited to have you join us and appreciate you taking time to prepare for your first day.

In the time leading up to your first day with us, we will keep you informed of the necessary tasks that must be completed before you arrive and all details including your start time and location.

Important!
As part of your first day, you are required to bring all necessary documents that are mandatory for employment. Acceptable documents, as provided by the Department of Homeland Security, can be reviewed at here.
