University Human Resources

Promotions and Job Transfers

Brown University is committed to investing in the professional development of its staff by offering paths to education and training, and to providing opportunities when business needs, staff career goals and qualifications align.

Staff can apply for transfers and/or promotions through the general hiring process. While employees are encouraged to remain in a position for one year to build a record of good work performance, they must apply for opportunities through Brown's online system by logging into Workday and typing "find jobs" in the search field. It is important to note that employees who are transferred or promoted through this process will serve a new probationary period.

It’s time to call the doctor...The Resume Doctor, that is. UHR Recruitment and Staffing members are available to provide you with feedback on your resume.
