Before You Apply

Thank you for your interest in the job openings at OHSU.  We welcome the opportunity to consider you as a candidate for positions for which you meet the qualifications.

Application Steps

iRecruitment is the system used by OHSU to list jobs, gather applications and hire employees.  Most jobs available at OHSU require applying through iRecruitment (except as noted in individual job descriptions). Please take note of our web browser requirements.

Never been an OHSU Employee*? Follow these instructions.

If you have never registered for an OHSU iRecruitment account

  1. Have a personal e-mail account ready
    • If you do not have an e-mail account, you can create one for free through various services like gmail, yahoo or msn**
  2. Register for iRecruitment [user guide]
  3. Find / select a job
  4. Apply for the job [user guide]

If you have previously registered for an OHSU iRecruitment account

  1. Log-in to iRecruitment
    • Your username is the e-mail address you used to register
  2. Find / select a job
  3. Apply for the job [user guide]

Not sure if you've previously registered with a specific e-mail address?

  • If you are not sure whether you have previously registered a specific email address with iRecruitment at OHSU, simply use the password reset page for non-employees to submit a password request. If you have previously registered with that email address, you will receive a password reset email (be sure to check your spam/junk mail folder). If you haven't registered with that e-mail address, you will see something like this: "Your email address does not match our records."

Former OHSU Employee*? Follow these instructions.

If this is the first time you are trying to apply for a job at OHSU since leaving OHSU

If your last hire date was before Nov. 2001, please follow the path above ("Never been an OHSU Employee"), and register for iRecruitment.

Otherwise, you will need to have your personal email address linked to your employee record in order to apply for a job. Please fill out this form. Processing may take up to 2 business days.  Instructions will be emailed to you on how to log-in to begin your job search.

If you have already had your personal email address linked to your OHSU record

You would have received an email from us explaining how to reset your password.  From now on you may simply log-in as a non-employee.

Current OHSU Employee*? Follow these instructions.

You must be receiving a paycheck from OHSU to qualify as an OHSU employee.  Contractors should register for iRecruitment as a non-employee would.

  • If you have an OHSU e-mail account, please log-in here using your OHSU network username and password.
  • If you do not have an OHSU e-mail account, you may either:
    • Ask your manager to fill out this form (select "create a new account").  This is the same access you need in order to use Employee Self Service to check on your benefits or personal information.
    • Or you can register as an external applicant. Note that by going this route, you will not be able to apply for internal positions until they are made available externally.
