Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Scientist Jobs at Humana Jobs
Align Your Credentials to Health Data Science
Humana's Scientist roles sit at the intersection of healthcare and analytics. Before applying, make sure your resume reflects experience with health data, clinical outcomes research, or population health modeling rather than generic data science work.
Search Scientist Openings Through Migrate Mate
Humana posts Scientist roles across multiple teams and locations. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Humana positions that include visa sponsorship, so you're not sorting through listings that exclude international candidates.
Understand How LCA Prevailing Wages Apply
For H-1B Scientist roles, your employer files a Labor Condition Application with the DOL certifying your offered salary meets prevailing wage for the job location. Roles based in Louisville may have different wage thresholds than remote or coastal positions.
Target Teams With Ongoing Research Pipelines
Humana's clinical analytics, actuarial science, and pharmacy data teams tend to have recurring Scientist openings rather than one-off hires. Focusing your applications on these functions increases your chances of landing within a team experienced in sponsoring international talent.
Prepare for PERM Documentation Before the Offer Stage
If you're targeting a Green Card pathway through EB-2 or EB-3, PERM labor certification requires your employer to document the recruitment process thoroughly. Gathering your educational transcripts and foreign credential evaluations before an offer shortens the post-offer timeline significantly.

Find Scientist at Humana JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Humana sponsor H-1B visas for Scientists?
Yes, Humana sponsors H-1B visas for Scientist roles. The company has an established process for supporting international candidates through both initial H-1B cap filings and transfers from existing H-1B holders. Because H-1B cap-subject filings are tied to the annual lottery in April, timing your offer and start date around that window is something to discuss with your recruiter early in the process.
How do I apply for Scientist jobs at Humana?
You can apply directly through Humana's careers portal or use Migrate Mate to browse Scientist openings at Humana that are open to visa sponsorship. When applying, tailor your application to the specific team's focus, whether that's clinical research, data science, or actuarial analysis, since Scientist roles at Humana span several distinct functions with different qualification requirements.
Which visa types does Humana commonly use for Scientist roles?
Humana sponsors a range of visa types for Scientist positions, including H-1B, TN (for Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying scientific occupations), J-1 for research-focused roles, and F-1 OPT and CPT for students in active degree programs. For longer-term employment, Humana also supports EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card pathways through PERM labor certification for eligible Scientist positions.
What qualifications does Humana typically expect for Scientist roles?
Most Scientist roles at Humana require at minimum a bachelor's degree in a quantitative or scientific field, with many senior positions preferring a master's or PhD in areas like biostatistics, epidemiology, health informatics, or data science. Practical experience with large health datasets, clinical trial analysis, or predictive modeling is frequently cited in job descriptions. Certifications in SAS, Python, or SQL strengthen your application across most teams.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take for a Scientist at Humana?
Timeline depends on the visa type. H-1B premium processing through USCIS takes around 15 business days after filing, while standard processing can take several months. TN status for Canadian citizens can be granted at the border on the day of travel. EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card cases, which require PERM labor certification through the DOL, typically take one to three years or longer depending on your country of birth and priority date.
