Frequently Asked Questions
How do I submit a resume?
While we accept general resumes, you'll increase your odds by
submitting a resume in response to a specific job posting. However,
you still are welcome to submit an electronic resume to our database. Please note that electronic submissions are preferred and
will receive a more immediate consideration.
What happens once I submit my resume?
Regardless of how your resume is submitted, we'll enter it into a
database that can be accessed by all of Bayer's hiring sites. When a
position opens, we'll review all appropriate resumes and will contact
those who best meet the requirements. We'll keep your information active for one year.
When will I hear back once I submit my
resume?
When you submit your resume via bayerjobs.com, you'll receive a rapid
response if you include an e-mail address. We'll acknowledge resumes
submitted by fax or mail within two weeks of submission.
What does it mean if I don't hear back from
you?
Bayer receives thousands of resumes each month, and we try to
acknowledge receipt of each one. Please know that your resume is kept
active in our database for one year, and we'll contact you should any
appropriate positions open up.
How will I know the job is filled?
When a job is filled, the position will be removed from the Web site.
We'll keep your resume active for one year and may consider you for
future positions that meet your qualifications.
Should I submit my resume to the facility where I'd
like to work?
No. The best way to be considered for employment is to submit your
resume to us in response to a specific job posting on this Web site.
What type of educational background do you look
for?
As a major corporation, we encourage and require a wide variety of
educational backgrounds. Our needs vary from Ph.D. scientists to
college and high school graduates. Check our job listing for current
open positions and their educational requirements.
How can I find out what jobs are currently
open?
We encourage you to visit the job listing page often since it's updated on a
regular basis. If you don't see a job you like today, it may be
posted there tomorrow.
Does Bayer hire non-US citizens?
Being a global company, we recruit and hire candidates from many
different backgrounds. We'll apply for permanent resident visas on
behalf of candidates who are not U.S. citizens, who do not have a
permanent resident visa to work in the U.S and who fall into one of
the following categories:
- They have a technical degree and an F-1, J-1 or H-1 visa and are
recruited by Bayer.
- They have an L-1 or H-1 visa and are expected to be assigned to
the company for an indefinite long-term assignment (international
transferee).
