Once you submit your resume through the online application process, an acknowledgement page will appear. This indicates your resume was received. Additionally, you will receive an email confirmation that your resume has been entered into our database. It will be active in our resume database for a period of six months. During this time, it will be reviewed and considered for current job openings.
No, that's not necessary, unless you want to submit different resumes for different openings. Your resume will be linked to each job you apply for, but even if you apply for only one job, the resume goes into a general database that our recruiters search regularly to find qualified candidates for all openings.
Our recruiters will consider your qualifications for all of our current job opportunities. You may be contacted regarding a position other than the one for which you applied
Due to the high volume of resumes we receive, we are unable to provide reports on the status of your resume in the screening process. A recruiter will contact you within two to three weeks after receipt of your resume, if there is an appropriate match between your resume and one of our openings.
Visit our job posting web site at http://jobs.lbl.gov/ for a complete listing of our job openings. All positions listed on the web are currently open. Once a position is closed, it is removed from the site.
Keyword searches require that you enter complete words (no wildcards or partial words) separated by spaces. You can also search for a position by requisition number if you know the number, by inserting it as a keyword.
We'll consider all qualified applicants who are legally eligible to work in the United States, regardless of citizenship.
No. To be considered for a position, you can simply apply with
a resume (and cover letter). You will be contacted if there is interest in
your resume/CV. If you are invited for an interview, you will complete the
official LBNL employment application at that time.
Yes. This is the final step in the online application process. This information is voluntary, yet essential for our diversity efforts. It will be used to help us measure progress toward achieving a diverse workforce that reflects the richness of our community. This voluntary information will not affect the consideration of your application.
However, if you choose not to indicate your gender or ethnicity, you can respond by selecting the ‘I choose not to self identify’ options.
Our employment site works best with Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.5 or higher) or Netscape Communicator (version 6.0 or higher). Using other web browsers may cause some of the functions of the site to not work properly.
You can email contact-lbnl-recruitment@lbl.gov with your inquiry. The appropriate recruiter will respond to you as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, we are unable to respond to individual employment phone calls or offer informational interviews due to the high volume of requests we receive. For the same reason, we cannot respond to requests for individual feedback on resumes. The best way to stay informed about jobs at the Berkeley Lab is to check our web site periodically and read the job postings carefully. Over time you will get a good sense of the kinds of positions we post and the qualifications we seek.
Again, thank you for considering Berkeley Lab as your employer of choice.
