Diversity jobs in Mississippi

Jackson is the center of gravity, with the state agencies, the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and the G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and Ridgeland and Flowood hold the offices that spill over from it. The Gulf Coast is the other pole: Keesler Air Force Base and the Biloxi Veterans Affairs hospital, the Ingalls shipyard in Pascagoula, and the Gulfport casinos and hospitals. The employers behind these listings have said clearly that they hire inclusively, and more than half of what they have posted is federal.

Nursing leads, with HR, administrative, and accounting positions behind it. Each listing was checked live with the employer before it went up and comes down once the job is filled. That comes to 19 live openings here, the largest share of them from Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital, a partner of Memorial Hospital at Gulfport; Veterans Health Administration; and Veterans Benefits Administration, and Jackson, Biloxi, and Long Beach carrying the most. Where pay is stated it runs $32k to $148k a year, 16% are remote, and 42% are federal positions.
