Meet your next employee or employer in Atlanta!
The Professional Choices Job Fair returns this year as a convenient forum to connect hiring practices with job-seeking ophthalmologists. If you are an ophthalmologist looking for a job or from a practice that is looking to hire, there is no better time to find a match than when ophthalmologists from all over the country converge at the Academy’s Joint Meeting in Atlanta.
Hundreds of physicians seeking employment opportunities will come together with representatives from more than 100 practices. To aid in planning, all participants will receive profiles of registered job seekers or hiring practices prior to the Job Fair. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet and mingle in a low-pressure, convenient environment.
