How IS the Hiring Process Set-up? at Johns Hopkins
No Offer – Interviewed in Baltimore, MD – Reviewed Jan 15, 2013
Interview Details – After over 500+ resumes & job applications but never a call back or interview I am 100% confused with how JHHS & JHU handle the recruitment process. I could totally understand if I were applying for positions I'm unqualified for but that is so not the case here. I don't get it, am frustrated and am turned off.

Administrative Coordinator at Johns Hopkins
Declined Offer – Interviewed in Baltimore, MD May 2012 – Reviewed Aug 31, 2012
Interview Details – Human Resources person I was supposed to meet was out sick, and her substitute seemed ill-prepared to handle my appointment. Short skills test in MS Office applications was exactly as described to me ahead of time, and was no problem.
Interview Question – It was very hard to find out anything ahead of time about the exact job I would be interviewing for -- turned to be not a good fit. Answer Question
Reason for Declining – The department was not a good fit for me -- there was going to be a lot of overtime and irregular work hours on a seasonal basis, with heavier duties in the summer and no ability to take vacation during summer months (when my children are out of school).
