Employment Services

The Employment Services Mission

Our Mission is to facilitate the hiring, development and retention of a talented, skilled and diverse workforce of individuals strongly committed to the goals of the University who, as active participants in the life of the University community, seek the best for the University and themselves.

The Office of Employment Services provides a wide array of services to Georgetown staff and faculty and prospective candidates for employment.  For employees, we help you manage your personal HR information, answer your questions about grades and compensation, and assist in the resolution of other concerns.  For managers, we provide guidance on all aspects of HR management at Georgetown, including hiring, compensation and performance management.  For prospective employees we have information on how to scan career opportunities and apply for a job.  The following is an overview of our services:
