Villanova University is an Equal Opportunity Employer and
encourages the recruitment and retention of qualified candidates for all
positions. As a federal contractor, Villanova University has an
Affirmative Action Plan which is overseen by the University's Affirmative Action
Officer in the Office of Multicultural Affairs. The University encourages
members of all diverse groups to seek employment with the University through the
Human Resources Department. Vacant positions are posted for seven (7)
calendar days to afford internal candidates the opportunity for first
consideration. Positions not filled internally are then open to external
candidates for application.
Notices of job openings are published in a variety of ways on
campus: electronically on the Human Resources Bulletin Board; on the Human
Resources Web site at
www.hr.villanova.edu; and on various bulletin boards on campus.
Current job openings are also recorded on the University’s telephone job
hotline, which may be reached by dialing 610-519-5900. Those interested in
applying for a posted position must send a letter of interest specifically
designating the job for which they are applying, along with their resume to the
Employment Coordinator in Human Resources or email same to
hr@villanova.edu.
To qualify for transfer or promotion, you must have completed at least one year
of service in your present position, and have a satisfactory work record.
However, there may be situations where this requirement would be waived with the
approval of the employee’s supervisor and the Human Resources office.
Internal applicants should apply within the bidding period (7 days from the date
of posting). This reflects the University’s intention to provide extra focus on
internal applicants. However, there is no requirement that departments interview
or select an internal candidate seeking transfer or promotion.
