JHT's Recruitment Process
Frequently Asked Questions

Online Application
Pursuing a career at JHT begins with your online application. Career opportunities are posted under the careers section (Career Opportunities) and openings are listed by specific location. Please read the descriptions and choose the position that best fits your qualifications, experience, and career objectives. When you find a position match, email your resume to the corresponding email address. If you do not see a position in the list that interests you, please refine your search or check back at a later date as additional job openings become available.

How do I know if my resume has been received?
You will see a "Thank you" screen that confirms receipt of your resume.

What happens after I apply for a job?
When you submit your resume for an opening, you will receive instant confirmation indicating that it has been received. Our recruitment staff will then review candidates. If you are selected as a candidate, you will be contacted for an interview and will be kept informed of your status throughout the process. All resumes are maintained in the JHT resume database for at least 90 days and will be available only to our recruiting teams.

Can I apply for more than one position at a time?
You are encouraged to apply for any position that interests you.

How will I know if I am being considered for a position?
The recruiter or hiring manager will call you to conduct a telephone pre-screening and/or to schedule an interview.

What if I need to update my resume?
If you have made a mistake or need to update your resume, simply re-apply. The last resume received is the one that will be the resume that our recruiting team will consider.

How often are new postings added?
New postings are added to the website as soon as positions become available.

Once I have submitted my resume, do I have to submit another resume for additional positions within JHT?
You must apply to each of our job postings individually in order for the appropriate recruiter to receive your resume. This also means you may receive notification that you have not been selected for a position at one location while still being considered for employment at another.

What kinds of benefits does JHT provide?
To find out more about our benefits plans, please visit the Benefits page located in the JHT Careers section.

Will I be required to submit to a background check?
Many of our positions support federal government contracts and may require a Department of Defense security clearance. In this case, applicants selected for hire will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information. Clearance eligibility must be maintained for the length of your employment with JHT.

What are the eligibility requirements to obtain a security clearance?
A personnel security investigation is an inquiry in to the following qualities of an individual: honesty, trustworthiness, character, loyalty, reliability, and financial responsibility. The application will request information regarding your employment, residential, criminal, and credit history. U.S. citizenship is also required to qualify for a security clearance.
