How long after I submit my resume/application will it take to get a response?

There’s not a set time frame. Depending on the priority of the position for which you applied, the hiring manager and the evolving needs of the organization, response times can vary from days to possibly even months. If a recruiter wishes to schedule a phone screening or interview with you they will contact you by phone. They may also email you for additional information. If we decide to pursue other candidates, you will receive an email notifying you of our decision. Recruiters work as quickly as they can to go through all resumes to find the most qualified candidates. We receive approximately 15,000 applications every month, so it can be a lengthy process.
