What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in associate professor of pediatrics jobs.
- MD or DO degree with board certification or eligibility in pediatrics
- Active or eligibility for state medical licensure at the hiring institution's location
- Fellowship training in a pediatric subspecialty such as neonatology or pediatric infectious disease
- Demonstrated record of peer-reviewed research publications and extramural grant activity
- Experience supervising and teaching medical students, residents, or pediatric fellows
- Commitment to maintaining an active clinical practice within the department
Tips for Your Associate Professor of Pediatrics Job Search
Tailor your CV to faculty expectations
Academic medical centers want to see your teaching portfolio, grant history, and peer-reviewed publications listed separately. A CV that buries clinical work alongside research output reads as unfocused, so organize each section distinctly before you apply.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists associate professor of pediatrics openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target departments matching your subspecialty
Pediatrics departments often hire within tight subspecialties. If your clinical focus is neonatology, applying to a general pediatrics opening at an institution without a NICU will likely stall. Search by subspecialty keyword to avoid wasted applications.
Secure strong letters before deadlines
Faculty searches close fast once a committee convenes. Line up your three or four reference letters well ahead of the posting deadline, and confirm that referees can speak to both your research productivity and your clinical teaching.
Prepare a teaching philosophy statement
Most associate professor searches require a written teaching philosophy. Reviewers notice when candidates submit a recycled or generic statement. Write one that cites a specific resident or fellow teaching scenario and explains what your approach produced.
Negotiate startup packages before you sign
Academic medicine offers startup packages that can include lab space, research coordinator time, and protected research effort. Ask about each component explicitly during offer discussions, because institutions rarely volunteer every available resource unprompted.
Associate Professor of Pediatrics Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most associate professor of pediatricss?
University Of Washington, University of Kentucky, and University of Miami are hiring the most associate professor of pediatricss right now, with openings concentrated in Washington, California, and Florida, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Academic medical centers affiliated with major research universities account for the largest share of open positions.
How many associate professor of pediatrics jobs are remote?
About 0% of associate professor of pediatrics openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the clinical and in-person teaching obligations most roles carry. Administrative, research coordination, and telehealth-focused faculty roles within pediatrics are the most likely to offer any hybrid flexibility.
How do you become a associate professor of pediatrics?
You first complete medical school and earn an MD or DO, then finish a three-year general pediatrics residency and obtain board certification. From there, most candidates complete a two- to three-year subspecialty fellowship. After fellowship, you typically join a department as an assistant professor, build a publication and grant record over several years, and then advance through promotion review to the associate professor rank.
How do you get hired as an associate professor of pediatrics with little experience?
Most departments at this rank expect fellowship training and some early faculty experience, but candidates coming directly out of fellowship can strengthen their applications by emphasizing grant submissions in progress, first-author publications, and formal teaching roles held during training. Targeting institutions with structured junior faculty development programs gives you a clearer pathway to promotion once hired.
What does the associate professor of pediatrics interview process look like?
The process typically begins with a phone or video screen with the division chief or search committee chair, followed by a formal campus visit lasting one to two days. During the visit you present a research talk, meet individually with faculty and department leadership, tour clinical and research facilities, and often give a brief teaching demonstration. A formal offer follows a faculty vote and administrative approval.
Where can I find and apply to associate professor of pediatrics jobs?
You can find and apply to associate professor of pediatrics jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from academic medical centers, children's hospitals, and research universities across the United States.
