Founded in 1821, The George Washington University (GW) is the largest institution of higher education and the largest private employer in the District of Columbia, with 19,000 undergraduate and graduate students in nine schools, over 3,000 faculty, and more than 5,000 staff members. The George Washington University is a community dedicated to learning, communication, respect, service and teamwork. As one of the largest private employers in the District of Columbia, the University seeks employees who support the teaching, research, and public service mission of the University.
The Division of Human Resources (HR) is committed to attracting, encouraging, and retaining a highly qualified workforce to support our mission of excellence in education and research. We offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes tuition benefits for employees and their eligible dependents, health and life insurance as well and many other supplemental programs and a generous retirement plan.
During the screening process, hiring managers assess the qualifications of the applicants and determine whether they have the requisite education and experience to be considered for the team. When applicants are selected for an interview, the department seeks to ensure that the individual understands the mission of the unit and how it supports the overall mission of the University.
The Division of Human Resources provides an orientation process to each applicant to share its rich history and its vision as a leading educational institution. Each new employee learns how their unique role contributes to the success of The George Washington University.
Workforce Management works with both the applicants and the hiring managers to develop processes that ensure the most qualified candidates receive highest consideration for the positions they apply for. It is the department’s role to evaluate salary proposals and assess credentials before making recommendations.
