Associate IT Professional - Job Rotation Program

When you are part of the Job Rotation Program, you'll do important work that has campus-wide impact, and you'll be supported in achieving your career goals.

Our Job Rotation Program participants experience four 6-month rotations in IT positions over two years to provide broad exposure in different facets of information technology across campus. Join our program in this world-renowned university where every employee contributes to the Wisconsin Idea, located in one of the most livable cities in America!

Program Highlights:

-Regular interactions with senior university leadership

-Hands-on experiences in multiple settings across campus gaining exposure and mentoring opportunities

-Participation within a cohort in on-going professional development

-Diverse assignments and responsibilities across business units and organizational functions

-Post-program preparation to transition to permanent role on campus including participation in a growing network of program alumni.

Each rotation is uniquely designed through a combination of university priorities and individual interests. Employees are hired and onboarded as a cohort to provide a community experience with a focus on shared learning through work such as group projects, case studies and contributions to the development of the program overall. All three tracks of the program - Finance, Human Resources, and Information Technology, prepare rotators to be well-equipped to transition to permanent roles on campus at the end of the program.
