Job Description

Overview For the 2026-2027 cycle we have up to 4 openings for 4th year externs. We abide by the application, interview, and offer date schedule set out by ACEN. About HES Hearing Evaluation Services (HES) is one of the largest freestanding not-for-profit audiology practices in the United States. We are committed to providing superior, ethical solutions for the hearing and balance impaired. We believe in advancing the field of audiology by ensuring that our staff of 18 AuDs are actively engaged in program development to better serve our patient population and the greater medical community. Facilities and Scope HES has four offices that provide a multitude of diagnostic and hearing aid services. We see adult and pediatric patients for comprehensive hearing evaluations, hearing aid fittings and follow-up, ABRs, Vestibular evaluations (Including VNG, Rotary Chair, oVEMP, cVEMP, eCoG), APD evaluations, cochlear implants, bone conduction solutions, ototoxic monitoring and tinnitus evaluation and treatment (including Lenire). We also have a long relationship working with a local ENT practice and another ENT who services our local trauma hospital. We provide audiometric evaluations for these ENT patients in our offices and in theirs. While each extern will have their primary office as a home-base, they will also be blocked throughout the year to spend time with other providers ensuring exposure to specialties like vestibular testing, tinnitus patients, and CIs. Training and History HES has a long history of training future audiologists and has been training 4th year externs since 2006. We have had 4th year students from a variety of schools around the country and always appreciate the experience they bring with them. This placement is focused on ensuring that students feel confident and prepared to work independently upon graduation from their AuD program. Responsibilities and Expectations Over the course of the 12 month externship, students will become independent in comprehensive audiometric evaluations, vestibular evaluations, and hearing aid fitting and troubleshooting. They will also become independent in report writing, charting, and general audiology business practice. Externs are scheduled with one-on-one training for all manufacturers within the first 2 months of starting and are invited to all additional manufacturer trainings. Due to our size, we typically have 5-7 off-site evening trainings per year for just our practice. HES is also part of CQ Partners, who provides training focused on building skills and confidence with the hearing aid evaluation process. Timeline and Application Applications are currently being accepted. We will follow the ACEN guidelines starting interviews on 9/22/25. First round offers will be made on a rolling basis and no later than 10/24/25, so serious applicants are encouraged to apply early. If our slots are not filled, we will continue to accept applications until 11/01/25. Start date is flexible and can be adjusted based on your school schedule and any relocation needs. Qualifications Successful applicants are self-motivated, detail oriented, able to take direction well, take pride in their work, and enjoy building rapport with patients and colleagues. We value absolute accountability and doing the right thing. Application Instructions Please email your cover letter, resume, and 3 letters of recommendation to [email protected]. Two letters should be from someone who directly supervised your clinical placements; the third can be from a personal, professional, or academic reference. #J-18808-Ljbffr Hearing Evaluation Services of Buffalo
