Anyone work at MIT, or know someone who does? Looking to get a foot in the door and want to start networking. Primarily admin or finance work. Cheers in advance!

Pinged a friend who does, but not near admin/finance. I am unclear on whether I have a good medium to introduce you. She says http://hrweb.mit.edu/staffing/ is generally useful and up-to-date. I have no networking fu and do not know what data/help you are looking for.

Thanks! I knew of that website and am going home today to spend Many Hours making sweet sweet bureaucratic love to it. Was mostly looking for someone on the inside to drop a tell to a higherup indicating that I am, in fact, fantastic for the position.

She says "I could try to answer questions, but I don't really have anyone who is going to hire someone on my say so." (Also MIT admin is vast and conditions/connections are likely to be department-specific.)

I'm the mutual friend in question, have a cousin, aunt, sister and my mom working different departments at MIT with various amounts of contact with admin or finance. I've been advised to tell you to apply for whatever positions you want through HR and let me know so I can forward the info to them for attempting to put on the correct desk. Email me badgerrogue at yahoo or gmail.
