Radiologic Technologist Jobs in Illinois: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a radiologic technologist in Illinois?

To work as a radiologic technologist in Illinois, you must hold a license issued by the Illinois Emergency Management Agency, Division of Nuclear Safety. Candidates complete an associate or bachelor's degree from a JRCERT-accredited program, pass the ARRT certification examination in Radiography, and then apply for the Illinois license. The state requires proof of ARRT registration and completion of an approved educational program before a license is granted.

How much do radiologic technologists make in Illinois?

Radiologic technologists in Illinois earn a median of about $79,930 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $59,350 for the lowest 10% to over $104,210 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire radiologic technologists in Illinois?

Employers hiring radiologic technologists in Illinois right now include Endeavor Health, Northwestern Medicine, and Midwest Express Clinic, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Illinois's density of large integrated health systems means openings are distributed across urban hospitals, suburban imaging centers, and regional medical campuses throughout the state.

Which Illinois cities have the most radiologic technologist jobs?

Chicago, Peoria, and Westmont have the most radiologic technologist openings in Illinois. Chicago drives the largest share because it is home to major academic medical centers and multi-site health systems, while Peoria and Springfield anchor significant regional hospital campuses that serve central and downstate Illinois populations.

Are there remote radiologic technologist jobs in Illinois?

Yes, but they're rare. Radiologic technology is a hands-on clinical role that requires operating imaging equipment and working directly with patients, so the large majority of positions are on-site. About 6% of radiologic technologist openings tied to Illinois are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those are almost exclusively teleradiology support or administrative imaging coordination roles.

How can I get hired as a radiologic technologist in Illinois with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying to new-graduate or student technologist positions at large Illinois health systems such as Advocate Health Care or Northwestern Medicine, both of which offer structured onboarding for candidates fresh out of JRCERT-accredited programs. Clinical extern roles during your final semester, completed at an Illinois facility, often convert to job offers. Completing your Illinois IEMA license and ARRT registration before your program ends is the single biggest edge, as many employers will not extend an offer without both credentials in hand.

Where can I find and apply to radiologic technologist jobs in Illinois?

You can find and apply to radiologic technologist jobs in Illinois on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across Illinois hospitals, imaging centers, and outpatient clinics. Find roles that fit your modality experience and preferred location, then apply directly to the employer through the listing.
