@JSI – John Snow, Inc. recently applied for a role but haven’t heard anything. Any advice on how to get a foot in the door or talk with a recruiter? Would really love to join one of their research teams

My partner worked there for a couple of years—assuming you have a pretty solid background in public health / international development?

From what I recall them telling me, the most assured way to get hired there is to have somebody on the inside who can personally vouch for you. That appeared to have a significant impact on the success of several applicants.

I’ll warn you, though. It seemed like a lot of people were frustrated working there. One of the biggest complaints I heard from my partner and their colleagues was that you can’t really get promoted; you have to wait for there to be an opening at a higher level and apply for it alongside however many external applicants there happens to be. That process seemed to burn a lot of people. Also, pretty uncompetitive pay bands.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Definitely curious where PH research folks are finding their niche in the consulting world. Good to know about JSI as still good short term step forward, thank you!

I don’t think I have enough YOE to go for a program architect role at SF otherwise I’d be interested.

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
