Employment & Job Placement Center

The Employment & Job Placement Center is a division of 1199SEIU Training and Employment Funds dedicated to building a strong healthcare workforce. EJP leverages our partnerships with union leaders and management to create measurable recruitment and placement success while empowering job seekers to achieve fulfilling careers by bridging workforce gaps and driving innovative recruitment solutions.

Currently, only participants in the Career Pathways Training (CPT) Program receive full career services through EJP, including resume assistance, career counseling, interview preparation, and job placement support.

Non-CPT participants can still use EJP to browse open healthcare positions and submit their resume to positions that match their criteria.

Whether you’re a CPT participant or not, submitting your resume alone does not guarantee you the job you apply for.

For non-CPT job seekers, there’s no guarantee that you’ll hear back from jobs you apply for or guaranteed timeline to be contacted. Once you submit your information, you’ll be notified if a job becomes available that matches your criteria and qualifications.

EJP works hand-in-hand with employers across New York state to put qualified candidates into quality jobs.

In addition to reaping the benefits of our relationships with employers, job seekers that find employment through EJP will be connected to good, union jobs through 1199SEIU.

We are a union of healthcare workers. We work in the homecare, hospital and nursing home industries, as well as pharmacies, freestanding clinics and other healthcare settings. With over 400,000 members throughout New York State, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Florida, Maryland and the District of Columbia, we are the largest local union in the world.

Being a part of 1199SEIU means being part of a family that will ensure you never have to fight alone for your rights in the workplace.

Existing 1199 members can access career support through the MyTEF portal. Through MyTEF, members can access career support services, request counseling, manage their benefits, and much more.

Partner healthcare providers can submit vacancies directly to EJP to get connected to qualified, motivated candidates. Partners will also receive support from a dedicated EJP recruiter who will work with partners to understand their hiring needs and deliver the right candidates.
