Who is eligible to apply for internally posted positions?

As long as you meet the following criteria, you are eligible to apply for new roles within J&J:

• You have a tenure of at least 18 months in your current position
  
• You are in good standing in your current position (e.g., you aren’t on a performance improvement plan)
  

Any exceptions to the above require approval from the employee’s manager and HR Partner, in consultation with Employee Relations, as appropriate.

Do I need to notify my manager before I apply for a new internal position?

You can apply for new positions without informing your manager. However, if you are invited to interview for the position, then to the extent that this is consistent with local law or practice, you are required to notify your manager prior to the interview. Check out our article Discussing Your Next Opportunity with Your Manager for more information about that conversation.

I’ve submitted my job application. What do I do now?

After you apply, we’ll send you an email acknowledgement that your information has been received. Our recruiters do their best to review the candidate pool for open positions in a timely manner. Due to overwhelming responses to certain positions, it may take several weeks for the recruiter and/or hiring manager to complete this process. We appreciate your patience during the review process.

If you’re selected for an interview, you’ll be contacted by a recruiter who will outline the next steps in the process. You can also track the status of your application on Career Hub. The tracking system indicates where you are in the application process. It also offers helpful advice and tips to navigate that stage. If you are not selected to move forward in the recruiting process, you will be notified by email, phone and/or postal mail. You still may be contacted about other opportunities that align with your profile or interests.

If I have previously applied, been interviewed, or am actively interviewing for a job within J&J, can I still apply for additional positions?

Yes, you can continue to apply if you are currently involved in the interview process for a different position as long as you are eligible to apply for internally posted positions.
