Entry Level Physician Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level physician job?
Entry level physician employers look for completed medical training, board exam results, and any hands-on clinical experience from residency or fellowship rotations. Candidates who can demonstrate patient care competency, strong references from attending physicians, and familiarity with electronic health records tend to stand out. Targeting smaller practices, community health centers, and urgent care groups often yields faster responses for new graduates than large academic systems.
Which companies hire entry level physicians?
Companies hiring entry level physicians right now include Optum, One Medical, and CHRISTUS Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. A broad mix of employers hires at this level, including community health clinics, regional hospital systems, urgent care networks, and multi-specialty group practices that actively recruit new graduates to fill direct patient care roles.
Are there remote entry level physician jobs?
Yes, though most physician roles at this level remain on-site given patient care requirements. About 11% of entry level physician openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions typically involve telehealth consultations, remote patient monitoring, or utilization review roles that suit candidates who have completed their clinical training and hold an active medical license.
Are these new grad physician jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior physician roles. A posting is generally new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of post-residency experience, counts clinical rotations or fellowship time toward requirements, and does not demand a pre-existing patient panel or independent practice history. Searching by entry level or new grad filters helps surface those opportunities quickly.
Which industries hire the most entry level physicians?
Entry level physician roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Technology & Software, and Education, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Those sectors drive hiring at this level because they depend on a steady pipeline of newly trained clinicians to staff primary care, urgent care, and specialty outpatient settings that require licensed physicians but do not mandate years of independent practice.
