When it comes to hiring, it’s a jungle out there. That’s why Health First, the county’s largest non-governmental employer, set up at the Brevard Zoo Tuesday with a proposition – “come grow with us.”

More than 300 turned out for the late-afternoon affair, enjoying light snacks and lots of networking. It was the first time since the pandemic began that Health First held a system-wide hiring exposition.

Along with four hospitals and dozens of specialists’ offices that employ thousands of doctors and nurses, Health First also maintains robust facilities teams, security units, IT specialists, distribution, supply chain, logistics and more.

“We’re looking for individuals who haven’t worked in healthcare,” said Adam Miller, Director of Talent Acquisition, Health First, “who are in food service or retail, who are really good at working with people and want to better understand how they can work at Health First but really aren’t sure how to get their foot in the door or what career path fits them. This [event] opens the door to them – we want to have a conversation with you.”
