Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Clinical Medical Assistant Jobs at University of Florida Jobs
Align your credentials with Florida licensing requirements
Florida does not require CMA state licensure, but UF Health typically expects national certification from AAMA or AMT. Confirm your certification is current before applying, since petitions for clinical roles often require proof of active credentials at the time of filing.
Target UF Health system postings directly
UF Clinical Medical Assistant openings are distributed across UF Health Shands, UF Health Jacksonville, and affiliated academic clinics. Searching UF's own careers portal filters out staffing agency listings, which rarely carry sponsorship, and surfaces roles where UF is the direct petitioning employer.
Clarify sponsorship scope before your final interview
UF sponsors multiple visa types for clinical staff, but availability can depend on the specific department and funding source. Ask HR directly during the offer stage which visa categories the hiring unit is currently able to support for this role.
Use Migrate Mate to identify open CMA roles at UF
Clinical Medical Assistant openings at large university health systems fill quickly and are scattered across departments. Use Migrate Mate to browse visa-sponsoring positions at UF in one place, so you can prioritize applications before roles close.
Prepare your LCA documentation before your start date
For H-1B sponsorship, your employer files a Labor Condition Application with DOL before USCIS ever sees your petition. UF's HR team typically initiates this process, but confirm the prevailing wage level aligns with the posted role to avoid delays in the LCA certification stage.
Understand OPT cap-gap timing if you are on F-1
If UF files an H-1B petition on your behalf before your OPT expires, the USCIS cap-gap rule extends your work authorization through September 30 of that year. Plan your graduation and employment start date so your OPT period overlaps with the April filing window.

Find Clinical Medical Assistant at University of Florida JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does University of Florida sponsor H-1B visas for Clinical Medical Assistants?
Yes, University of Florida sponsors H-1B visas for Clinical Medical Assistants. UF is a large academic medical institution and a registered H-1B petitioner, which means it can file cap-subject petitions for eligible candidates. The specific department and funding structure can affect how quickly sponsorship moves forward, so confirming directly with UF Health HR during the offer stage is the most reliable approach.
How do I apply for Clinical Medical Assistant jobs at University of Florida?
Applications go through UF's official careers portal at jobs.ufl.edu, where Clinical Medical Assistant openings are posted by department. You can also browse visa-sponsoring CMA roles at UF on Migrate Mate, which surfaces positions where sponsorship has been confirmed. When applying, attach your current national CMA certification from AAMA or AMT, as UF Health hiring managers expect that credential to be active at the point of offer.
Which visa types does University of Florida commonly use for Clinical Medical Assistant roles?
UF sponsors H-1B and E-3 visas for Clinical Medical Assistant roles in its health system and academic clinics. J-1 exchange visitor status is also used in some clinical training contexts. Candidates on F-1 OPT or CPT who are already in the U.S. can begin work while a longer-term petition is prepared. TN and EB-2/EB-3 Green Card pathways are also supported for qualifying candidates in this role.
What qualifications does University of Florida expect for Clinical Medical Assistant positions?
UF Health generally requires an active Certified Medical Assistant credential from AAMA or a Registered Medical Assistant credential from AMT. A completed accredited CMA program is expected, and roles in specialty clinics may require prior experience in that clinical area. Basic Life Support certification is a standard requirement. For international candidates, a foreign credential evaluation confirming equivalency to U.S. standards strengthens both the application and any sponsorship petition.
How do I get a work visa timeline right when targeting a Clinical Medical Assistant role at UF?
H-1B petitions can only be filed during the April cap season for an October 1 start date, so aligning your offer and credential paperwork well before March is critical. For E-3 visa applicants, there is no annual cap constraint and consular processing typically takes two to six weeks. UF's HR team handles USCIS filings, but you are responsible for providing documents like your degree, certification, and passport well ahead of any filing deadline.
