The hiring process here is heavily reliant on networking and personal connections. Even if positions are advertised, they're often already promised to someone within the network. Despite this, the faculty and staff are genuinely friendly and approachable during the actual interview. Once hired, the work environment is very supportive, and you're given opportunities to develop your skills while being paid.

The hiring process at BYU can be quite lengthy, so anticipate several weeks to pass after your interview. It's a highly desirable workplace where employees tend to have long tenures, which contributes to the difficulty in securing a position, often with over 100 applicants for each opening.
