- Resumes will be reviewed and students will be contacted for interviews.

- Some students will be asked to come back for a second interview. This will give you an opportunity to discuss your areas of interest in medical social work with our employees who are field instructors.
- Students who are matched with a social worker and asked to complete their field hours at Akron Children’s will complete hospital orientation to obtain badge access, login information and keys.
