We value your time and have built the selection process to reflect that. Our process is simple; you will begin the selection process with an application that is individually reviewed by our Recruiting team and a phone interview to best understand your specific areas of interest. The next step is to interview with the Engagement Resources team leaders. After that, decisions will be made and the Recruiting team will be back in touch. We value our candidates and want to ensure a process that directly reflects what you can expect as a Johnson Lambert employee. That means you have an entire HR team to support you through your candidacy and ensure you’re finding a position that will allow you to take your career to the next level in a culture that helps you thrive. 

Equity note: Research suggests that women and Black, Indigenous, and other persons of color are less likely than men or White job seekers to apply for positions unless they are confident they meet 100% of the qualifications. We strongly encourage interested individuals to apply, and allow us to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and abilities you demonstrate, using an internal equity lens.

Johnson Lambert prides itself for the hands-on approach and relationships we build with future employees, employees, and clients. We believe each application is the potential for a future relationship with JL. Therefore, a member of our HR team personally reviews all applications submitted.
