[Fwd: RE: [Web4lib] Position announcement - Georgetown University]

[Nina McHale]

Thanks to Rebecca for pointing out that these are listed as 
"Georgetown-only" on our HR site.  They'll open up to everyone on June 
1st; however, I don't think we'll have (m)any internal candidates for 
the systems/technical positions.  Sorry for the confusion; this Qatar 
campus set-up is happening so fast!  Since it's such a fluid situation, 
if you're interested in any of these positions, probably the best thing 
to do is to contact our HR Librarian, Irene Hoffman, at 
imh3 at georgetown.edu or 202-687-1601 for more info.

Are these for GU employees only? If so, perhaps this is the wrong audience
to send these announcements...?
