Below are answers to frequently
asked questions about the university's hiring
process.
I’m not sure for which position
I’m
qualified. Can I send you a resumé so
that
you can match me with an opening?
Due to the volume of resumes we receive from
applicants interested in a career at American
University, we are unable to provide a resumé-matching
service. However, we provide information about
the openings so that you may readily match your
qualifications and interests with the positions
available.
How often are the career listings updated?
We update the AU Careers site continuously as
we receive openings.
Should I submit a separate cover letter
and resume or application if I am applying for more
than one position?
Yes. Please include the appropriate position
title and number in each copy of your cover
letter or application.
How long are positions open? What is
the closing date for the position in which I am
interested?
Unless otherwise noted, positions are open
until filled. In some cases, a department may
decide to re-open a search, so keep checking
our listings.
When will I be called for an interview?
After reviewing the resumés submitted,
if a department believes there is a match, they
will contact you directly to arrange for an
interview.
How will I know you have received my resumé?
You will receive correspondence from human
resources confirming that we have received
your resumé. Included in this correspondence
is demographic data request that the university
uses to meet its affirmative action reporting
requirements.
