Why does the system time out when I'm doing a "Keyword" search?

The system may time out due to the large quantity of search results. Use at least two fields for a targeted result and faster response time. You can narrow your search by selecting a "Location," a "Job Category," and entering "Keywords" on the Search for Jobs page. You may also search for multiple "Locations" and "Job Categories" using "Show Advanced Search."

What kind of background checking does Hewitt conduct on job applicants?

All job applicants to whom an offer of employment has been made must pass a background check screening as a condition of employment. In North America, the screening includes a consumer report and/or investigative report. Current associates applying for new positions may also be required to undergo a background screening. Hewitt conducts background checks and pre-employment screenings in compliance with all legal and professional standards. Hewitt has set a global standard for background checking that we strive to meet in all locations to the extent allowed by local law. See Hewitt's Background Checking Policy for more information.
