Entry Level Case Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level case manager job?
Entry level case manager roles typically look for candidates with a relevant degree in social work, psychology, or a related human services field, along with any internship or volunteer experience working directly with clients. Highlighting hands-on fieldwork, strong communication skills, and familiarity with case documentation or care coordination software gives you a real edge at this stage, even with a short work history.
Which companies hire entry level case managers?
Companies hiring entry level case managers right now include Optum, Sutter Health, and Humana, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a wide range of employers, including nonprofit social service agencies, hospital systems, behavioral health organizations, and government-funded community programs.
Are there remote entry level case manager jobs?
Yes, though most entry level case manager openings are on-site given the client-facing nature of the work. About 16% of entry level case manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those roles tend to appear most often in care coordination, utilization review, and insurance-based case management where client contact happens by phone or telehealth.
Are these new grad case manager jobs?
Yes, the listings here include new grad, recent graduate, and junior case manager roles. A posting is typically new-grad friendly when it explicitly welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts internships or practicum hours toward requirements, or accepts a portfolio of relevant fieldwork in place of full-time history. Look for language like 'entry level,' 'new grad,' or 'no experience required' in the job description.
Which industries hire the most entry level case managers?
Entry Level case manager roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Insurance, and Technology & Software, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at the entry level because they rely on large frontline caseloads, frequently receive government funding tied to staffing requirements, and often build structured onboarding programs specifically designed for junior staff.
