Hi Carolyn,
A 3.5 GPA, education in healthcare management, communication, and admin support is a strong combo that many employers need, especially in entry to mid-level management and tech/admin roles in healthcare.
Based on what you’ve shared, here are some job titles to search for:
Entry to Mid-Level Management Roles:
Patient Services Manager
Clinic or Medical Office Manager
Health Unit Coordinator
Care Coordinator Supervisor
Practice Manager (Entry Level)
Administrative Supervisor – Healthcare Setting
Technician Roles That Fit Your Interests:
Medical Records Technician
Health Information Technician
Patient Care Technician (PCT – may need certification)
Pharmacy Technician (some training required, but in high demand)
Lab Assistant/Technician (great for entry-level with training)
Behavioral Health Tech (for mental health clinics/hospitals)
Apply to:
Hospital systems(like Mercy, Baptist Health, UAMS if you’re in Arkansas, or your local health system)
State or county health departments
Telehealth or remote care companies(search: “remote healthcare coordinator” or “remote care team assistant”)
Healthcare staffing agencies (they help place people faster!)
What You Can Do Next:
1. Update your resume to highlight:
- GPA
- Communication skills
- Admin or tech coursework or experience
- Any internships, volunteer work, or certifications
2. Set job alerts on Indeed, LinkedIn, and USAJobs (for government/VA hospitals)
3. Apply directly to 2–3 local hospitals or clinics per week
4. Reach out to staffing agencies like Maxim Healthcare, Soliant, or Aerotek (they help people get started in hospitals and clinics)

Hello, Carolyn !
So sorry that you are having such a hard time finding a job in the large city of Philadelphia. You've mentioned that you have experience in Healthcare Management but you have five more years of college ? I'm not sure about the details of this. What do you have experience in ? That is what you should apply for.
Healthcare Management positions in your state require a Bachelors Degree in Healthcare Administration and for higher roles, a Masters Degree. The experience working you'd have to have would precisely be in quality management or compliance at a hospital or another healthcare facility. Assess your degree and years working at a hospital or other facility and see if you qualify for the positions you are applying for. If you do not meet the requested qualifications in the employment description in the job notice, that may be why you're not hearing back for an interview. Still, I am not clear if you're looking for a career job or a job just to have some income before a career job. You'll really need to meet with someone in person who can interview you and obtain the details of your situation.
You never mentioned what grade or college level you are in so it's not too easy to advise you on this, but you do need to be well informed. Residents of Philadelphia can obtain employment services at Esperanza Workforce Development and PA CareerLink® Philadelphia provides job search assistance, resume writing, and job readiness training. I would advise, since you may need assistance, that you connect with these two organizations. It's something you'll have to do in person. When you are ready, Philadelphia has a number of Employment Agencies that you can register with. You can find them by doing a search on the internet.
Yes, you are worth it ! Don't give up. Your concern would be greatly helped by going to academic or guidance counselors and even a community service agency could prove to be a good support. Usually if you don't understand why you're not being hired, you'll need to meet with someone that can assess your specifics. It's good that you live in a major city as there are more opportunities in that setting.
Take care and I wish you all the best moving forward !
