CareJobs.Now MCP server
A free, hosted, read-only Model Context Protocol server for US healthcare jobs. It lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients search the open jobs that CareJobs.Now reads every day from the career sites of 258 hospitals, health systems, clinic groups and care companies (170,000+ openings), with the pay each employer posts. Every answer links to the job's page on CareJobs.Now, where the user applies on the employer's own site.

Agent skill
skills/healthcare-job-search/SKILL.md is an Agent Skill (Claude Code, Claude apps and other agents that read SKILL.md) that teaches an assistant to answer healthcare job and pay questions with this server or the public JSON endpoints.
Example prompts
- "Find night-shift ICU nurse jobs in Boston with posted pay."
- "What do CNA jobs pay in Texas?"
- "Which hospitals are hiring respiratory therapists in Ohio?"
Data
The same figures are free as JSON and CSV, no key needed: /roles.json (open jobs by kind of job and employer), /pay.json (posted hourly pay by kind of job) and /pay.csv. A dated open dataset is on Zenodo: 10.5281/zenodo.23395728 (CC BY 4.0). An llms.txt describes the site for AI assistants.
