What's Inside

OHR Quick Links



The organizations below have agreed to help the accompanying spouses/partners of new U of AM faculty/staff:

  • learn more about their organizations;
  • determine units that have functions that correspond with the spouses'/partners' skills and interests; and
  • identify potential internal career opportunities.

The contacts listed are for information gathering and networking purposes and do not guarantee that you will be given an interview for an open position.

To contact an organization, complete the following steps:

  • Learn as much as you can about the organization by reviewing its web site and other published materials. The James J. Hill Reference Library is an excellent source for business information. Do NOT contact an organization until you are knowledgeable about its products, purposes, etc.
  • Determine which organizations are a good “fit” for you. Read the Workplace Values Assessment for guidance.
  • Call or e-mail the organization's designated University liaison. Inform the liaison of your affiliation with the University and that you received her/his contact information through the Relocation Assistance Program.
  • The liaison will then work directly with you. RAP will not be involved with ongoing contacts. You will be responsible for future correspondence with the organization.
  • Provide RAP with a very brief summary of your contacts.
