University Of Chicago carries a Seen Grade of 54/100, with an average wait of about 35 days to hear back and a 40% ghost rate. Here's what applicants report.
Staff hiring averages ~30 days across 437 Glassdoor-submitted interviews but varies wildly (1-180 days by role); postings can stay open six months and policy is to contact only shortlisted applicants. Candidates describe full-day panels in processes stretching past 6 weeks, applications sitting in-process for months with no contact, hiring managers ignoring post-interview follow-ups before a generic rejection, and suspicion that some searches exist mainly to justify internal promotions. Reported average time to first response is about 35 days. Applicants report roughly 3 interview round(s).
