Notes to Applicants and Projected Exam Information

TYPE OF ELIGIBLE LIST: OPEN-COMPETITIVE
Only an Open-Competitive eligible list will be established as a result of this examination. Permanent City employees will receive no promotional preference in this examination.

Candidates who pass the exam and are placed on the civil service list will be retained on the list for a minimum of one year and a maximum of two years after the establishment of the Eligible List.

RESIDENCY WAIVER

The Civil Service Commission has waived the usual requirement that candidates must be residents of Philadelphia.

PREFERENCE FOR PHILADELPHIA RESIDENTS

Candidates who have maintained a bona fide residence in Philadelphia for at least one year prior to the date of the civil service examination shall have priority over all other persons receiving an identical test score. For Training and Experience evaluations, in which applicants will not be asked to appear to take a scheduled examination, the residency preference eligibility date is the planned eligible list date listed on this announcement.

To receive such preference, candidates must respond to the question regarding residence later in this form. The response on this application will be used to determine eligibility for preference for residents. Documentation of residence may be required if there is any question as to whether you meet the residency preference requirements.

If an applicant does not respond to the appropriate residence question, it will be assumed that the applicant does not qualify for residence preference. Eligibility for residence preference must be determined by the date of the test administration. No requests for residence preference will be granted after the test administration.

INDEBTEDNESS NOTICE

As a condition of employment with the City, any person offered employment shall be required to certify that such person either is fully current on any and all debts, taxes, fees, judgments, claims, and other accounts and obligations due and owing to the City; or has voluntarily entered into a payment agreement with the City. For so long as the person is employed by the City, the amount of the payment as set forth in the payment agreement (not to exceed, for any pay period, twenty percent (20%) of the person’s gross pay for such period, without the person’s consent) shall be withheld from each paycheck until such payment agreement is fully satisfied.

Such person shall also be required to certify as a condition of employment that he or she is fully current on any and all debts, taxes, fees, judgments, claims, and other accounts and obligations due and owing to Philadelphia Gas Works (PGW) or has voluntarily entered into a payment agreement with PGW.

Failure to enter into a payment agreement shall result in the cancellation of the appointment and removal from the certification. The name of the eligible candidate will be returned to the eligible list.

PREFERENCE POINTS FOR CANDIDATES FOR OPEN-COMPETITIVE EXAMS

Candidates who pass Open-Competitive exams may be eligible for additional points added to their final score. Preference Points may be claimed from the time of application until 30 days after the eligible list is established. The required documentation for the preference must be provided to receive the points.

U.S. VETERAN'S PREFERENCE

Ten points will be added to the scores of eligible veterans. You must be honorably discharged from the U.S. Armed Forces.

PHILADELPHIA SCHOOL DISTRICT CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION PREFERENCE

Up to 5 points will be added to the score of candidates who have completed and graduated from a career technical education (CTE) program of the School District of Philadelphia within the last three years before the examination announcement date. If the 5 additional points from the CTE preference would rank a CTE graduate above a veteran, additional points shall be applied to the CTE candidate’s passing score to rank them directly below the veteran.

Candidates must successfully pass all parts of the examination before veteran’s preference, legacy preference, national volunteer service preference or CTE preference points are awarded.

TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE EVALUATION

Applicants will be evaluated and scored based upon their training and experience credentials. Applicants will not be asked to appear to take a scheduled examination.

Scores in the Training and Experience Evaluation will be based on documentation of education and experience provided by the candidate. To receive full credit for your education and experience, you should submit all relevant documentation including college transcripts, licenses, certifications, paid out of class documentation, etc. and provide a detailed description of your education, experience, and credentials.

Pathologist Jobs in Philadelphia: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a pathologist job in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia's strongest hiring comes from its dense cluster of academic medical centers and large health systems in University City and North Philadelphia, followed by regional hospital networks and commercial reference labs. Subspecialty expertise in surgical pathology, neuropathology, or molecular diagnostics gives candidates a clear edge here, as does familiarity with the high-volume, academically oriented environments that define this market. Networking through Thomas Jefferson University or Penn Medicine affiliations also helps.

Which companies hire pathologists in Philadelphia?

Companies currently hiring pathologists in Philadelphia include Small Talk Therapeutic Services, Elwyn, and Edu-Aids, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Philadelphia's employer mix leans heavily toward large academic health systems, community hospital networks, and regional reference laboratories, reflecting the city's role as a major mid-Atlantic medical hub.

Are there remote pathologist jobs in Philadelphia?

Yes, though remote work is limited for pathologists given the hands-on nature of most roles. About 21% of pathologist openings tied to Philadelphia are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those tend to be in telepathology, second-opinion consultation, or administrative and medical director functions rather than primary diagnostic bench work.

How can I get a pathologist job in Philadelphia with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path in Philadelphia is a residency or fellowship at one of the city's academic medical centers, which serve as direct pipelines into staff positions. Entry-level candidates should target community hospitals in the surrounding neighborhoods, independent clinical labs, or anatomic pathology assistant roles that build hands-on diagnostic exposure. A connection to a Philadelphia-affiliated training program substantially shortens the hiring timeline for early-career applicants.

Which industries hire the most pathologists in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia pathologist roles concentrate in Retail, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. This reflects Philadelphia's identity as a research-intensive medical center city, where hospital systems, academic institutions, and life sciences companies all depend on pathology expertise for clinical care, clinical trials, and diagnostic development.
