Our Aboriginal Career Specialists can help!

Interior Health (IH) is dedicated to working with Aboriginal populations (First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) within its boundaries and is focused on improving the health of Aboriginal people we care for. As we look to the future, IH is shifting toward a more culturally-competent focus both in our hospitals and out in the community, to better serve Aboriginal Peoples within the Southern Interior region. Interior Health remains committed to the work of increasing our Aboriginal workforce, and ensuring that we hire and retain Aboriginal people at all levels of the organization – from front line to leadership.

Step 1: Make Sure you are eligible to apply as an Aboriginal applicant:

In order to qualify for one on one support from our Aboriginal Career Specialists you must identify as Aboriginal; North American Indians or Aboriginal/Indigenous people include status, non-status, Métis and Inuit people. Only those Aboriginal persons who come from Canada and the United States should identify themselves as belonging to this designated group.

Self-identification must be indicated on your cover letter.
