Has anyone applied to Dana Farber Cancer Institute? I've applied to a number of their jobs and I have yet to receive any form of reply for the past few months (applied between February and March). I expected replies to come in around 4 weeks, but I'm worried that I'm being ghosted and would like to make sure. Thanks for any feedback.

Hi! I’ve applied at Dana Farber, gotten interviews, and am currently working there. I recommend revising your resume and cover letter, which isn’t the most helpful advice. I applied to a bunch of positions without any response, and then I tailored my resume and cover letter to the specific job, and I started getting more interaction. It might depend on the department, but whenever I’ve been invited to interview, I’ve been contacted directly by the hiring manager a couple of days after I’ve applied, followed by an HR call to review referrals. There were no HR screening calls, which I appreciated.

I wouldn’t consider them not replying to job applications as ghosting. If they interviewed you and they went MIA after, then ghosted.

Yes, I'm experiencing this right now. I do realize that your comment was from a year ago so you may not see this response. I have excellent experience that should have landed me at least an interview or two. I am suspicious that they are hiring very very young people straight out of college or grad school.

Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
