Can I submit my information without applying for a position?
Yes. You are not required to apply for a specific position. If you don't find
an opportunity that you are interested in, you can submit your profile only by
logging in and using our Candidate Profile. If you choose to apply later for a
position, you can do so any time as your profile information will be saved.
What is the application process?
When you apply for a position, your profile and answers to any job questions are
measured against the job requirements. As our recruiters match candidates for
current opportunities, you may be contacted to schedule a qualifying telephone
interview.
In some cases, you may not hear from us right away, which may indicate that at
this time we don't have an opportunity that matches your skills. Please continue
to apply to positions that interest you and keep your profile up to date. We
are always looking for new talent.
How long does the hiring process take?
While it varies, most people have at least two rounds of face-to-face
interviews--the first with HR and hiring managers, the second with the Hiring
Manager and their team. Most posted positions are available immediately, but
the hiring process can vary greatly in length and depends on several factors,
including the skills needed and the number of qualified candidates.
Will I be considered for other positions when applying for a specific position?
Yes, both your candidate profile and your resume will be stored in our database - and will be available
to us when ever we need candidates.
How often can I update my profile?
Once you have established a profile on our website, you will be able to
access your profile at any time. If there is a change in your skills,
employment history or personal information - you can log in to make updates.
What is the salary range of the position I applied to?
All jobs have a broad salary range that accommodates those employees who are
becoming proficient at their positions and those who are already quite skilled.
Your starting salary will depend upon your experience and perceived proficiency
at your job. BSHC reviews its salary structure regularly and conducts Equity
checks to ensure we remain competitive with market conditions.
What happens to my resume after it's been submitted?
Once submitted, your resume enters our candidate tracking system which utilizes
state-of-the-art technology. This tool provides us with a centralized talent
pool and serves as the first stop for our HR, who is trying to identify
candidates for specific job openings.
After I submit my profile and/or application will I receive a response?
Yes. You will receive an email confirming that your profile and/or application has been received.
Will I hear back from the HR Department/Recruiter?
You are most likely to receive a response and/or advance through the process
if the position to which you apply closely matches your skills and background.
If you are not contacted by the HR Dept, please continue to visit our site to search
for new available opportunities.
How could I be notified if there are new positions that fit my skill set?
Within your Candidate Profile you can create your personalized job search agent.
To create a Job Search Agent, search our careers and save your search criteria
as a Job Search Agent. It will then do the searching for you and e-mail those
jobs to you!
Where can I find information on benefits available to employees?
Visit the section entitled Benefits and click through to Insurance Plans.
I have an interview. What can I do to prepare?
We suggest you:
- Review the job description to determine how your background applies
- Be prepared to cite examples of your key professional accomplishments or related academic work
- Familiarize yourself with the content of your resume
- Ask a friend or colleague to help you practice
- Read some basic information about BSHC's culture, history, etc.
