Shift:

The Ohio State University believes in diversity in people and ideas. What Ohio State does matters. And how we do it matters. When we are at our best, we make a real difference to people. Our size, breadth, geography, history and standard of excellence position us to drive the future of higher education. We believe that the university should be a place where people can work and learn together in a safe environment, free of violence, harassment, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. As such, finalists for any faculty position that carries tenure must sign an authorization and disclosure form, which will allow current or prior employer(s) to share information to the University regarding any findings of employment-related misconduct or disciplinary proceedings against a candidate and/or any pending investigations related to alleged misconduct. Such information shall include findings and pending investigations with respect to sexual harassment, violence, or harassment; research misconduct; financial fraud or misconduct; foreign influence violations, grant misuse or misconduct; and/or any other type of finding or pending investigation relating to a candidate’s employer’s policies and rules governing faculty conduct that may reasonably be expected to affect a candidate’s appointment. If the University becomes aware of any past finding of misconduct or pending investigations that were not disclosed, Ohio State will treat that as a serious omission and reserves the right to rescind an offer or terminate employment.

Final candidates are subject to successful completion of a background check.  A drug screen or physical may be required during the post offer process.

What applying to Ohio State University usually looks like

Based on publicly available information, candidates applying through workday for Ohio State University can typically expect an online application requiring a profile, resume upload, and completion of standardized fields covering education, work history, and voluntary disclosures. Given the wide range of role types, from clinical and healthcare positions to administrative, technical, and skilled trade roles, applicants may notice differing supplemental questionnaires or assessments depending on the department. The process commonly includes automated confirmation emails, and applicants can generally expect potential follow-up through the same portal for status updates. Screening may include multiple stages such as recruiter review, hiring manager evaluation, and possibly panel or departmental interviews, though exact steps vary by role. Response times vary, and candidates are encouraged to monitor their Workday account and email regularly, as communication is often centralized through that system rather than external channels.
