About the role

The Virginia Department of Health is seeking an Epidemiologist (Scientist I) to perform entry‑level epidemiologic work in surveillance, detection, and prevention of public health events. You will consult on scientific issues, conduct routine investigations, collect and analyze data, and provide health education and disease control recommendations. Position typically works under supervision with assignments reviewed for accuracy, methodology, and practicality.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
