Careers at GGU

Thank you for your interest in Golden Gate University.

For more than 100 years, nonprofit Golden Gate University (GGU) has been helping adults achieve their professional goals by providing undergraduate and graduate education in Accounting, Law, Taxation, Business, and related areas.

Golden Gate University prepares individuals to lead and serve by providing high quality, practice based educational programs as a nonprofit institution in an innovative and challenging learning environment that embraces professional ethics and diversity.

• GGU offers a comprehensive benefits package to eligible employees.
• We partner with Patelco Credit Union to offer ongoing financial education seminars to employees.
• Full-time eligible employees can take part in the Fringe benefits program—employees who enroll accrue monthly taxable credits to purchase a variety of products and services for personal use.
• Eligible employees can participate in the GGU Tuition Remission program to take courses in any GGU graduate or undergraduate program. IRS tax implications do apply.

• Applicants submit their application along with a resume and cover letter. Hiring managers conduct application reviews and interviews. Upon selection, new prospective employees receive a written offer letter from GGU HR.
• After accepting an offer, HR sends new employees a detailed welcome email outlining the onboarding process. HR conducts a background check (for full-time faculty, staff, and adjunct positions only) using Hire Right, a third-party partner.
• Following successful background check completion, candidates receive an email notification with Paycom login credentials to access assigned new hire paperwork.
• Once the new employee completes the onboarding process, GGU’s IT department creates system log-in credentials for the new employee.
