Employers Online
If you are an employer seeking full- or part-time staff or interns, HFES offers the only online Career Center exclusive to human factors/ergonomics professionals all over the world. More than 40% of HFES members hold a doctorate degree, 33% hold a master's degree, and about 15% hold a bachelor's degree (as the highest degree held in all categories).

To recruit top human factors/ergonomics professionals, go to http://careercenter.hfes.org/post.cfm and post a job, search the résumés, or do both. Candidates searching the database can send their résumés directly to your desktop.

Candidates Online
This service is for HFES members only! Log in with your username and password to post your résumé and search our database of available jobs. If you see a job posting that interests you, you can e-mail your résumé directly to the employer. If you prefer to remain anonymous, the "Confidential" selection protects your identity until you choose to become known to the employer.
