Diversity and Inclusion
Studies suggest that a lack of access and opportunity drive the underrepresentation of certain populations in science, technology, engineering, math and medicine (STEMM) careers. St. Jude looks to change this, committing itself to increasing diversity within the teams making the discoveries that lead to novel treatments. Read more about the STEMM Education and Outreach team at St. Jude, a program that works alongside K-12 students to introduce them to STEMM subjects.

Manager

I am a practice manager of 5 different specialty practices. I drive an hour each way to my job. I was told last year and now again this year that I do not qualify for a raise based upon my yearly review. Mind you none of my physicians have made any complaints on me during the calendar year. Only at the end of the year during my review. They did not take into account the other physicians who gave me rave reviews. I feel it is time for me on. What are your thoughts?

Pros

Great benefits that continually get better. Benefits team clearly listens to feedback and wants from employees and in the short time I’ve been working here have seen improvements that matter to me in

Cons

Construction on campus is a pain (and makes it a long walk to my building). But they keep us updated on what’s going on, it has been interesting to watch the progress, and it helps me get my steps in

Advice to Management

Solidifying some of the things that make my job work so well for me as well as my teammates across all roles it makes sense for could go a long way in improving job satisfaction for employees who

    Application

    I applied online. I interviewed at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (Memphis, TN) in Apr 2023

    Interview

    The interview process was very quick – the recorded interview, virtual interview with the director and another staff member, and in-person interview with other team members all happened within a week. Communication was consistent and the next steps were clear. . . until they weren't. No one reached out to tell me I didn't get the job, and instead, I found out through the job portal dashboard that I wasn't selected for the position. After that quick buildup, an emailed rejection would have been nice. Also, make sure to be on campus at least 15 minutes early, as there can be hold-ups at the security gate, and you'll likely have to park on one of the upper levels of the parking garage. No one gave me this heads up, and I'd never been on the campus before, so take note!
