Would I have to travel?
Yes
The location of your assignment completely depends on where your skills are needed. Most consultants are on the road from Monday through Thursday, flying out on Monday and returning home on Thursday.
 
What are maxIT's benefit offerings?
Very attractive
maxIT has a comprehensive benefits package for all consultants including health, life, dental, and vision coverage. A 401K program along with performance bonuses allow consultants to save for retirement and earn extra compensation. Consultants receive generous paid time off and vacation as part of their employment package. There are also non-monetary benefits available to consultants including participation in the consultant Advisory Board and ongoing education and training. Consultant recognition programs have also become very popular and unique to working with maxIT.
 
Does maxIT provide a laptop computer?
Yes
All full-time consultants are provided with a laptop, which is shipped to you before your first day of employment.
 
Does maxIT provide financial support for ongoing education?
Yes
There is an ongoing education program that allots each consultant a specified dollar amount per year to use towards continuing professional education.
 
How do I get new engagements?
maxIT sales organization
maxIT employs a highly effective and professional sales organization that is continually calling on healthcare organizations in order to build and maintain a pipeline of available consulting engagements. This team of sales professionals monitors the status of engagements and is proactively locating new assignments for you even before your current engagement has ended.
 
What is the typical week in the life of a maxIT consultant?
Mon-Thurs at client location, Fri - Sun home
Typically, consultants have a Monday morning flight/drive to the client. They work onsite at their client until Thursday. Most consultants fly home on Thursday and have a home office day on Friday for most to wrap up the week. Home for the weekend. This is completely driven by the clients needs for the project to which you are assigned. In some cases, a particular phase of an engagement (i.e., go-live) may require you to work occasional nights and/or weekends.
 
What personality traits are required to be a successful maxIT consultant?
Strong experience and good people skills
Relevant experience and good people skills are truly what make a successful maxIT consultant. Our clients value us most for those two reasons.
 
Is there a peer group in my practice area?
Yes
maxIT is organized into practice areas based on software vendor. There is a strong culture of open communications and sharing among practice area team members. New consultants are assigned a "buddy" or mentor to help them get oriented to maxIT. Although maxIT consultants are distributed across the US, there are regular phone checkups and ongoing email communications. Twice a year, practice areas get together in person to share ideas and suggestions to improve maxIT.
 
Can I connect with other consultants?
Yes
Yes. While our consultants work out of their virtual offices, there are regularly scheduled events throughout the year that allow us to connect live with one another. When you join maxIT, you will be invited to attend our monthly employee orientation. At orientation, you will have the opportunity to connect with other new consultants, as well as Advisory Team members (maxIT consultants), back office staff, salespeople, and the Leadership Team.

Twice a year, you will meet with your practice area group to learn from others experiences, collaborate, and socialize with individuals with similar software skills. These Practice Group meetings take place at various destinations and are led by current maxIT consultants.

In the fall, maxIT Healthcare comes together as a whole for the annual company meeting. The Company Meeting is a time of learning, collaborating, and mostly a lot of fun to relax, build relationships, and reward you for a job well done.
