I am a current Kaweah Health employee. How do I submit a transfer request?

Qualified employees desiring a transfer to another department or job are eligible for consideration for any posted position (per HR Policy 31). To be considered, you must complete an online application. When applying, make sure to select the pathway that states "Current Employees Click Here to Apply Online".
