Job Listings FAQ

Question: Which Job and Position Wanted Listings and Submission Forms are public (anyone can use) and which ones are private?

Answer: Job Listings of value to NYSSPA members who are Physician Assistants (whether seasoned, new or soon to graduate) are posted on a regular basis in the NYSSPA "Members Only" section of this web site. Only NYSSPA members have the ability to view "Job Listings", or to post to "Positions Wanted."

Any individual or organizational representative may add a job listing to NYSSPA's member-only section by using the public link "Submit A Job Listing", and they may review "Positions Wanted" that are posted by NYSSPA members.

Jobs listed or Positions Wanted listings do not constitute endorsement of a position, prospective employer or prospective employee. NYSSPA merely compiles a list of open positions and a list of positions wanted. We assume all submissions are made in good faith. We do not interview prospective employers, employees, candidates, independent contractors, etc. All jobs listed are expected to be in accordance with applicable state and federal laws regarding equal opportunities and anti-discrimination laws. Federal law requires proper identification and documentation prior to employment. NYSSPA reserves the right to begin charging for this service at any time to any new job listings or positions wanted added to our current listings. We reserve the right to remove your listing at any time. We make no representations, claims or warranties regarding the exposure your listing will have or whom may answer it. Both parties should use common sense and proper judgment in evaluating prospective employers or employees, respectively.
