How do you find out about the 'biggie' jobs

 

Our HR's Department has a lot of jobs listed, but most of them are for secretarial work OR nurse managers. I know that the jobs of Director or Manager of blah blah - exist at this hospital -and I suspect I could do them, but how do I find out about the jobs? I don't ever hear about the Manager Level jobs, but I see people filling them occasionally.  How does that happen? How did they find out about them?

You must know the culture of the place. Some places only promote internal candidates for management and senior positions so just check out the trends. Were most managers promoted to their jobs? Depending on the specialty they may have to advertise but often than not they already have people they know. The best thing may be have an informal chat with HR. Just a 'by the way I know someone who wants to work here blah blah how do they get a look in.' That way you get to know, don't lose face and keep your own consel about your aims/ambitions.

I think it depends on the place.  What would I do?  Ask someone who got one of the biggie jobs where you want it.  Our CIO was hired because we ran an ad in monster and dice.  I was promoted to a high level I.T. Manager by working as a Network Engineer, so that one wasn't advertised, they just saw I was good at it and made the position for me.
